Classic WWII Panzerkampfwagen 3 Medium Tank


Specially designed for the new armoured divisions of the Wehrmacht, the Panzerkampfwagen III appeared in 1939 with a not very adequate version of the 37mm anti-tank gun. However, it did have a large turret ring which enabled larger guns to be fitted later. There was a good deal of development during the prototype stage and the version which came into production was the Ausf. E. Subsequent models went to Ausf. N. the alterations being mainly concerned with extra armour, wider tracks and more engine power. Total PzKpfw III production was around 5,700 examples.
