Look like Pz IV / 70 to me.
Wiki link


Jagdpanzer IV (Sd.Kfz.162[1])
with 7.5 cm Pak 39 L/48, developed under the name Sturmgeschütz neuer Art mit 7.5 cm Pak L/48 auf Fahrgestell PzKpfw IV, with 769–784 produced in January 1944 – November 1944.[1]

Panzer IV/70 (V) (Sd.Kfz.162/1[1])
was one of two variants armed with the same Pak 42 L/70 gun. The (V) stands for the designer, Vomag. The most produced version, with 930–940 built in August 1944 – April 1945.[1] Equipped with a long, powerful L/70 7.5cm anti-tank gun that could outrange opposing Allied tank weapons, the Panzer IV/70(V) Lang proved a formidable foe. The "Lang" (German for "long") in its name was added to distinguish it from its predecessor with a shorter L/48 7.5cm gun.

Panzer IV/70 Platoon (GBX160)

Panzer IV/70 Platoon

The Panzer IV/70 tank combined the excellent gun of the Panther tank with the tested hull of the Panzer IV tank. With additional armor, this made for a formidable fighting vehicle. The Panzer IV/70 is armed with the same long 7.5cm KwK42 L/70 gun as the Panther tank, and can crack the front armor of any Soviet tank.

Armoured AA Tank Platoon (GBX166)

Armoured AA Tank Platoon

The Ostwind has been designed in 1944 as a successor to the Wirbelwind. Armed with a 3.7cm FlaK43 anti-aircraft gun, it has better range and hitting power than the Quad 2cm AA gun of its predecessor.
