anyone know what changes the ausf g has over the f? apart from a different muzzle brake some gs seem to have no turret visor ports and extra front armour

Hi Mate , Acording to my Osprey book heres the following changes that were made to the Ausf.G from the Ausf. F :

April '42 : Vission ports on L and R turret side and on turret L front were dropped,

May '42: Frontal armour increased by welding 30mm plate,

June '42: Rack for two spare road wheels added to track guard, brackets for spare 7 tracks welded to glacis plate,longer antenna gaurd added.

Sept. '42: Bosch headlight replaced the Notek headlight , signal ports on driver and radio opperators hatches removed, ball shape muzzel breake replaced with double-chamber verrsion

Nov. '42: Deflector for antenna welded to gun mantlet,

Feb '43: Smoke dischargers discontinued , drivers twin periscopes dropped , holes plugged then without them , A new cupola lid with single piece lid,

March '43: Signal port on turret roof deleated,

April '43: 30mm frontal add on armour now bolted not welded , L/48 gun changed to L/43 with redesigned muzzel breake , schurzen added.

May '43: Prefilter mounted on right track guard , radio anntena mounted on flexible rubber base now mounted on rear corner of upper deck.

Think thats it all mate , but I supose all these were not done exactly to the date etc.

Hi mate your welcome , I have two Pz.Ivs planned . Ive started one thats the almost final version Ausf. J with the three return rollers etc on this Ive lowered the rear return roller (NOT idler as I previously put ) and the drive sprocket . My second one thats not started is going to be a late Ausf. H .





This is my Late/final model Ausf.J Pz.IV
