5 cm PaK 38
Fahrgestell Panzer II

 

Specifications

Conceived along the same lines as the Marder II, the 5 cm PaK 38 was an expedient solution to mount the 50 mm antitank gun on the Panzer II chassis. However, the much greater effectiveness of the 75 mm antitank gun made this option less desirable and it is not know how many field modifications were made to this effect.
