| StuG III Ausf. G (1942-45, 7,893 produced)
The final, and by far the most common, of the StuG series. The G-series StuG used
the hull of the Panzer III Ausf. M and, after 1944, a second machine gun. Later
versions were fitted with the Saukopf (Ger. pig's head) gun mantlet, which was
more effective than the original box metal structure at deflecting shots. |
