The tank that finally gave the Wehrmacht an answer to the T-34.

When German crews on the Eastern Front first met the Soviet T-34 in 1941, the shock was real. The short-barreled Panzer IVs they'd rolled into Russia with were suddenly outclassed. The answer came in 1942: the Ausf. F2 - up-gunned with the long 7.5 cm KwK 40, crowned with the unmistakable rounded "ball" muzzle brake that makes this variant instantly recognizable to anyone who knows their armor. It was the first Panzer IV that could kill a T-34 at fighting range. From here on, the Panzer IV would become the workhorse of the Panzerwaffe for the rest of the war.
