Greetings

Am I missing something or does the WW2 German range still not have a Pzkw III Ausf G or H with 5cm L42 gun?  This was the mainstay of the Panzerwaffe from 1941-42 and you can't do Barbarossa or North Africa without it. 

Estimated production: G: 600, H: 308

The Sdkfz 141 Pzkw III Ausf J was initially produced with a 5cm L42 as well (about 482) though this apparently had a longer hull (5.52m vs 5.41m).  The change to the 5cm L60 brought the redesignation to the Sdkfz 141/1 for the later J (about 1067 built) which I presume is the current Pendraken Panzer III J.

Admittedly I am not likely to do my DAK until late next year but it would be a shame not to have Pendraken models to represent a very common type.  Anyone doing Barbarossa is similarly affected.
