Experience the Power of German Artillery: The Hummel Self-Propelled Howitzer
The Panzerhaubitze Hummel (Bumblebee) was essential German self-propelled artillery during World War II. Furthermore, it was one of the most effective pieces on the battlefield. The vehicle was developed using the reliable Geschützwagen III/IV chassis. Therefore, the Hummel provided crucial mobile heavy fire support. This support was necessary to keep pace with the fast-moving Blitzkrieg armored divisions. The vehicle’s massive $15 \text{ cm } sFH 18$ howitzer offered a powerful advantage. Consequently, it could deliver high-explosive ordnance across significant distances.
Key Engagements and Historical Significance
The Hummel saw active duty on both the Eastern and Western Fronts. Specifically, it proved its worth in major engagements. It played a vital role in the titanic Battle of Kursk (1943). In fact, it provided deep-fire support against Soviet counterattacks there. Later on, Hummels were also instrumental in the defensive battles after the Allied D-Day landings. This included the desperate fighting in the Falaise Pocket. Similarly, they fought in the Battle of the Bulge. Their long-range capabilities were used to disrupt Allied supply lines and concentrations. This COBI brick model perfectly brings this historical powerhouse to life in impressive $1:28$ scale.
