The Panzer IV was the work-horse of the German armored forces during World War II, saw action all fronts, and was continually upgraded throughout the war. Responding to developments in Allied Armor, the Panzer Iv Ausf F2 variant was the first to receive the long-barrel KwK 40 L/43 75mm canon, which could fire a high velocity shell capable of knocking out the Russian T-34 and Anglo-American M3 and M4 tanks. This gun remained the standard main armament on all subsequent models of the Panzer IV (Ausf G through J) and this configuration would have seen action in North Africa, the Mediterranean, Russia, and the Western Fronts.
