Historical Details

The StuG III Ausführung G was one of the most numerously produced German armored vehicles of World War II. Commonly used from 1942 on all fronts – from the Eastern Front, through Italy, to Normandy, it operated mainly as a self-propelled anti-tank gun and infantry support vehicle. The Topfblende, or "pot mantlet", introduced in 1944, increased the gun's resistance to direct fire and became one of the most recognizable features of the late version of the StuG III Ausf. G.
