37mm Bofors Mk 1936 (L/47) anti-tank gun was a licence copy of Swedish Bofors gun, manufactured in Poland by SMPzA in Pruszkow. With 300 guns bought in Sweden, Polish Army had 1200 anti-tank guns Mk 36 in 1939 (a number of Polish guns was also exported to Romania, Spain and Great Britain).
As for armour penetration, there are different data given, but 37mm Bofors gun could destroy any armoured vehicle in 1939 from a distance below 1km, and its performance made it one of the best 37mm AT guns of that time.
Armour piercing, armour piercing with a tracer and high explosive – fragmentation ammunition were used.
Practical rate of fire - 10 rds/min.
Model is from Mirage Hobby. Quality of the kit is rather poor, but subject is interesting. I made the model oob and the only modification was drilling out the barrel.
