Evolutionary Tank Killer
During WWII, the German Army produced and operated the Marder III
series, which were built to combat Soviet T-34 tanks.
The Marder III was equipped with obsolete Czech built 38(t) tank chassis
and came initially armed with captured Soviet 7.62cm Pak36 anti-tank
cannons.
This cannon was later replaced with the German 7.5cm Pak40 gun for the
Ausf.H and final variant, the Marder III M.
The Marder III M was put into production in May 1943 and unlike earlier
variants, the M's cabin was moved to the rear and the engine brought
forward to the mid section.
A total of 942 M's were produced until the introduction of the
thoroughbred tank destroyer Hetzer which assumed much of the Marder's
role. |
