Initially designed for close infantry fire support, it had been utilized as self-propelled artillery against enemy strong points. But once the German forces experienced the Russian KV-I and T-34 tanks regarding Eastern front side, the particular situation without warning changed. To attempt this Russian tank danger, the Germans was at fact forced to update their current tools systems. The ensuing StuG III Ausf.G, built from belated 1942 onwards, used a far more effective, very long barreled 75mm L/48 tool.
