The PaK 36 (Panzerabwehrkanone 36) was a German anti-tank gun that fired 3.7 cm caliber shells.
It was developed by Rheinmetall in 1936 and first saw combat use that same year during the Spanish Civil War.
It formed the basis for many other nations' anti-tank guns during the early years of World War II.
The PaK 36 was obsolete as a small-caliber weapon by the Western campaign in May 1940, and crews found it almost useless against Allied heavy tanks such as the British Mk.ll Matilda and the French Char B1 and Somua S-35.
Poor performance against heavy enemy armor led to the PaK 36 being nicknamed the "tank knocker." The PaK 36 was replaced by the new 5 cm PaK 38 in mid-1940.
