<strong>The</strong> PanzerKampfwagen IVJ was manufactured right up until the end of the war and was the final version of<br />

the PzKpfw IV series to be built. Most of the changes on this vehicle were intended to speed production,<br />

however, armor thickness and close-range defenses were improved as well as the exhaust and fuel systems. 1,758<br />

PzKpfw IVJ were built, bringing the total number of PzKpfw IV series tanks to 8,744, not including command<br />

vehicles and other vehicles which used the PzKpfw IV chassis.<br />

Options: Schuerzen armor skirts, PzGr 40 ammunition.
