StuG III - The German Assault Gun That 'Killed' The Most Enemy Tanks In WW2
The Sturmgeschütz III, or Stug 3 assault gun, was the most widely produced German combat vehicle of the Second World War.
Like the Panzer IV, it was the only other German armoured vehicle to be produced continually from 1939 to 1945 with more than 10,000 manufactured.
Initially intended as a mobile assault gun for direct-fire support for infantry, the StuG 3 was continually modified, and was employed as a tank destroyer.
Instead of being used as an assault gun, circumstances demanded that the StuG III be used as a tank destroyer.
By the time the War ended, the Stug III had destroyed an estimated 30,000 Russian tanks – this was not only more any other German combat vehicle, but also more than any Allied tank type.
