Pz Kpfw IV Ausf A

The Ausf A was produced in 1936 and was armed with the short barrelled 75mm KwK 37 L/24 low velocity gun designed mainly to fire high explosive shells. However, firing the Panzergranate (AP shell) the KwK37 could penetrate 43mm armour at 700 m. A 7.92mm MG34 was mounted coaxially in the turret with another mounted in the front hull position. Production ended after 35 Ausf A were produced.
