Based on the durable Pz.Kpfw. III chassis, the StuG III featured a monoblock structure with an L24 75mm short barreled gun mounted directly on the hull, eliminating the revolving turret and reducing overall height. The StuG III's design allowed the installation of a larger main gun, and led to greatly reduced production costs, making it one of Germany's most important armored vehicles of WWII. The Ausf. B was the first truly mass produced StuG III with over 250 produced from June 1940. The Ausf. B saw action during the Balkans campaign in April 1941 and Operation Barbarossa in June, 1941, and was widely respected for the reliable direct fire support it provided, and for its ability to face formidable Soviet tanks.\u003cbr\u003e\nAbout the Model\u003cbr\u003e\n★1\/48 scale assembly model of the Sturmgesch?tz III Ausf.B.

Based on the durable Pz.Kpfw. III chassis with a completely new superstructure, the revolving turret was eliminated and the short barreled 75mm L\/24 gun was mounted directly onto the hull, giving the StuG III an extremely low vehicle profile. Originally intended for close infantry fire support, it was used as self-propelled artillery against enemy strong points. However, when the German forces encountered the Russian KV-I and T-34 tanks on the Eastern front, the situation abruptly changed. To cope with this Russian tank threat, the Germans were forced to upgrade their existing weapons systems. The resulting StuG III Ausf.G, built from late 1942 onwards, used a more powerful, long barreled 75mm L\/48 gun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAbout the Model\u003cbr\u003e\nAssembly model of the Sturmgeschutz III Ausf.G Early Version in a compact 1\/48 scale. ★Length: 140mm, Realistically replicated gun and square-shaped welded type mantlet. ★Early version distinguishing features such as front bolt-on armor and smoke dischargers faithfully replicated. ★Die-cast chassis for added weight and realism. ★Assembly type treads feature one-piece straight sections with realistic sag effect. ★Kit allows choice of either 75mm L\/48 gun or 105mm howitzer. ★Kit includes 1 commander figure (torso) and 2 types of markings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tamiya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51471892906251,"sku":"32540","price":24.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0777\/1809\/4091\/files\/tamiya-32540-stug-iii-ausf_-g-stuh-42.jpg?v=1749113286"}],"url":"https:\/\/anglia-models.com\/fr\/collections\/deu-stug-iii-1-48.oembed","provider":"Anglia Models","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
