Rain... open-top tank... fucking great engineering!
Rain... open-top tank... fucking great engineering!
And?
The practicality and ergonomics well outstrip the fact you may get a bit wet.
I miss wreaking havoc with these bad boys in CoD2.

blitzkrieg needed clear weather anyway

Just get a tarp, big deal
It’s a self-propelled gun, you absolute WoT-playing faggot

Hello, is this the retard department?
tank destroyers were a pretty dumb idea, why did they manufacture so many of them
They were much cheaper to produce than a tank and often used converted chassis of obsolete tanks, in very rough terms they basically chopped the turret off and outfitted a larger gun that wouldn't fit otherwise. They were a unique compromise of the war and both Russia and Germany took similar approaches to converting old T-34/KVs or Pz3/38t chassis into new SPGs.
I'm gonna SATCHEEEEEL
That's an ausf. H not ausf. M, checkmate
Tank on fire... open-top tank... fucking great engineering!
Tell that to the Stug, literally the most efficient German AFV.
>Marder
>Wespe
Retard department has fined you $10 for hypocrisy.
Tank guns were getting large and more difficult to move around on the battlefield so mechanizing them was the obvious solution
For me, it's the SU 76 (m)
It's a fucking tractor with a gun, close enough
>they were bad
>why did they produce so many
Probably because they knew something you don't, like anything at all really.
>bounces your shot
An assault gun is NOT a tank destroyer
Cute!
They were often used interchangeably
>this casement mounted self propelled gun is nothing like that casement mounted self propelled gun
Absolutely semantics. The Stug III is indistinguishable from "tank destroyers".
Around 2,500 were made but hardly any photos or videos of them in combat exist
