German Medium Tank, Panzerkampfwagen

Mark IV (PzKw IV)

1941

Manufactured by Krupp

 

The Panzerkampfwagen IV was the backbone of the German armored (panzer) divisions during WW II. A reliable and versatile design, later models had improved armor and guns that kept the PzKw IV a match for American and Soviet tanks until the end of the war.

 

The Ordnance Museum Foundation thanks

Kathy and Peter Gentry and Brian Poling for their donation towards the restoration of this vehicle.
