Purpose and Historical Accuracy

The sheet refers to the German assault gun Sturmpanzer IV Brummbär, used by the Wehrmacht from 1943. Zimmerit was a special anti-magnetic coating applied to German armored vehicles in 1943-1944 on both the Eastern and Western Fronts to protect against magnetic mines. The pre-cut plates are perfectly matched to Brummbär models, allowing you to faithfully replicate the characteristic grooves of this coating.
