The E.T. Model E72-017 set is a high-quality collection of photo-etched parts, dedicated to the StuG.III Ausf.G model in 1/72 scale, manufactured by the renowned Dragon company. This set is intended for modelers who wish to give their German assault gun StuG III Ausf.G models a realistic appearance, faithfully recreating the original Zimmerit coating texture used by the Wehrmacht during World War II.

Zimmerit is a characteristic anti-magnetic coating applied to German armored vehicles from September 1943 to September 1944, during World War II. Its purpose was to prevent the adhesion of magnetic mines. The StuG III Ausf.G, one of the most widely produced and used German self-propelled guns, featured extensive use of this protection. It was used on all fronts of the war from 1943 until the end of the conflict in 1945, supporting the panzer and infantry forces of the Third Reich in battles such as Stalingrad or during operations on the Western Front.
