Pz Kpfw III Ausf H

Upgunned with the 5.0cm KwK/42 gun the Ausf H was an improved Panzer III although still no match for the Russian T34s. The Ausf H had a newly designed turret and the basic 30mm armour was upgraded with additional 30mm plates to hull rear, hull front and superstructure front. The Ausf H was the first Panzer III with the 5cm gun and was produced between October 1940 and April 1941.
