I am looking to supplement my 20mm Romanian Force with the addition of some late war AT guns. I know they used German equipment i.e. the 75mm PAK 40, but was wondering if anyone knew of a source for the 75mm DT-UDR 26 (Resita) M43 anti-tank? Thanks in advance. |

Thanks for the quick responses. Shell Hole scenics do a 75mm Skoda Mountain gun, but cannot see the M-43 AT. I didn't realise SHQ & Raventhorpe did Romanians – SHQ are not my favourite mini's so I will have to take a look at the offering from Ravethorpe. |

Interesting gun, which I did not know existed. So, Wikipedia says it used the chamber design of the PAK-40 – could it then chamber German PAK-40 ammo? Doug |

For some reason it is under the Italian guns the Resista 76.2 |

Romania also used quantities of PaK 97 AT guns. |

Doug, good question which I will have to leave to those with considerably more knowledge on the subject than I have. Spontoon, The Romanians would have used whatever they could get their hands on as they had little or no armaments manufacturing industry of their own. Although they were the 3rd largest Axis army they appear to have been behind the other Axis nations for the provision of equipment from the Germans. That said, now you have mentioned the 75mm Pak 97/38 I may also have to buy a few of these too. :-) |
