Stug III
As you may have read the other tank destroyer pages on this wiki, you may think to yourself, "Damn the Germans must have really hated tanks!". On the contrary, the Germans loved tanks so very much. However, they hated everyone else's tanks, to the point they constantly devised new ways to kill, maim, and or outright annihilate enemy tanks, some more successful than others. The Stug III was one of those successes, armored, low-profile and armed with a powerful 75mm gun. The Stug III was a powerful tool in the hands of the Germans and was their most produced assault gun/tank destroyer and their second most produced armored vehicle after the Sdkfz 251.
