Conceived as an assault weapon to support infantry operations by providing close fire support, the Sturmgeschutz III, or StuG as it is often known, quickly was performing yeoman duty as a tank destroyer. Ultimately the StuG became the most produced armored fighting vehicle, and served on all fronts. Because it was produced in such huge numbers, it is not surprising that there were numerous variations introduced during the StuG's 1940 through 1945 production run. This volume focuses on the early models, or Ausfuehrung, through the F series. Lavishly illustrated with almost 200 scarce, detailed photos, this 168-page volume provides detailed insight into this fascinating vehicle in easy to read English.
