Historical Information

The StuG. III Ausführung G is an advanced version of the German assault gun used by the Wehrmacht during World War II (years 1942–1945). This vehicle was widely used on all fronts of the war, from the Eastern Front to North Africa and Normandy. At the beginning of 1943, in response to the increased effectiveness of Soviet anti-tank ammunition, the StuG. III began to be fitted with Schürzen side armor, providing protection against shaped charge and anti-tank shells. These side skirts became a distinctive feature of German armored vehicles of that period.
