The British developed the 17pdr in 1942, in response to the more heavily armoured German tanks which they encountered during the North African campaign - and the gun saw extensive use in both Europe and Africa. The 17pdr was one of the most powerful anti-tank guns fielded by the Allies - capable of penetrating 20cm of armour. 

This Blister contains one metal anti-tank gun and 5 metal crew. These models are supplied unpainted, and assembly may also be required.
