History:

The Sturmgeschütz III Ausf. G was a tank destroyer produced by Germany during World War II. It was the most-produced variant of the StuG III, with over 10,000 vehicles built. The Ausf. G was armed with a long-barreled 75mm StuK 40 L/48 gun, which gave it excellent anti-tank capabilities. It also had a sloped front glacis plate, which made it more difficult to penetrate by enemy fire.

The Ausf. G was introduced in 1942, and saw widespread use on all fronts. It was particularly effective against the Soviet Union’s T-34 and KV-1 tanks. The Ausf. G was also used in the defense of Germany during the final years of the war.

The StuG III was a highly effective tank destroyer, and its low profile and powerful gun made it a difficult target to hit. It was also relatively cheap to produce, which made it a cost-effective weapon. The Ausf. G was one of the most important German armored fighting vehicles of World War II, and it played a major role in the outcome of the war.
