Product Description
Put pay to enemy armour with the British 17-pdr!
The QF 17-pdr was developed to overcome the more heavily armoured German tanks encountered by the British during the fighting in North Africa. A few hybrid 17-pdrs on 25-pdr carriages (called ‘Pheasants’) were sent in early 1943, though the final version was not deployed until later that year, making its combat debut in Italy. By the time of the campaign in Western Europe, it equipped the Royal Artillery anti-tank regiments. The 17-pdr was the most formidable anti-tank gun deployed by the western Allies, and was capable of penetrating more than 200mm of armour at short range using armour-piercing discarding sabot (APDS) shot. Designed almost entirely for anti-tank work, the 17-pdr would receive HE shells that were somewhat less potent than their size might suggest - this is reflected in its special rules in Bolt Action.
In Bolt Action, a 17-pdr should be your first port of call when you really need to knock out enemy armour, a task for which it is remarkably well-suited, counting as a Super-heavy Anti-tank gun with a formidable Pen value of +7. This version is crewed by Winter-clad British/Canadian troops, ready to refight battles set in the bitter winter of 1944.
