Sturmgeschutze III (SdKfz 142) Ausf C/D
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Armed with a short-barreled 75mm L/24 Kanone, the Stug III was initially envisioned as an infantry close-support vehicle. In early 1941, a new model of the Stug III was introduced that featured a redesigned front superstructure that included the removal of the gunner’s sight to the roof and a solid 50mm front plate, resulting in a simpler, more effectice design. Although externally there was no difference between the ausf C and ausf D models, there were minor internal differences.
Distinguishing Features: The Stug III was built on a basic Pzkpfw III chassis with the turret replaced by a low fixed superstructure. The 75mm L/24 gun was fitted in the superstructure front with limited traverse.
