StuG 40 Ausf G (Finnish Army)

Initially designed for infantry support, the Stug III based on the Panzer III chasis became probably the most numerous of Germany's armoured fighting vehicles in WWII. The StuG III Ausf G was upgunned and fitted with the KwK 40 L/48. The new gun resulted in some being referred to as StuG 40. The higher velocity gun transformed the StuG III from an infantry support vehicle to a tank destroyer.
