75mm Assault Gun Sturmgeschutz III

The Stug III or Sturmgeschutz 40 was the most produced armoured fighting vehicle to be used in support of the infantry during World War II. It was built based on the chassis of the Panzer III tank. The StuG III was continually modified and was widely to fill an anti-infantry close support combat role, early models were fitted with a low-velocity 75 mm StuK 37 L/24 gun, firing high explosive shells. After the Germans encountered the Soviet T-34, the StuG III were armed with the high-velocity 75 mm StuK 40 L/43 (Spring 1942) or 75 mm L/48 (Autumn 1942) anti-tank gun.
