Vehicle history and application

The Bison II, designated as 15cm s.IG33 (Sfl.) auf Panzerkampfwagen II, was a German self-propelled gun built in 1942 on the chassis of the popular Pz.Kpfw.II Ausf. D/E tank. Only 12 units of this unusual vehicle were produced, and their main role was to provide fire support for infantry and eliminate strongpoints during offensive operations, mainly on the Eastern Front. The Bison II was used by Wehrmacht units during World War II, primarily in the campaign against the USSR. Its distinguishing feature was the massive 150 mm sIG 33 gun installed on an open fighting compartment.
