After the outbreak of World War Two, according to problems exposed in battles, the German Army requested to develop one type of tank to assist the infantry assaulting.

Code vk 18.01 is the original background of the Pz.Kfw I Ausf.F. This type was the last version of the venerable Pz.Kpfw. I, having huge differences compared with the original type.
There were only totally 30 ever constructed, most of them belonging to the improved later type, featured in this kit.

Everything is really nice, very sharp casted, no sinkholes, disturbing or flash
