G, produced in May 1943, with Schürzen (armor skirts), was a crucial asset to German armored forces during the Battle of Kursk, one of the largest tank battles in history. The StuG III, originally designed as an infantry support vehicle, had by this point in the war been upgraded with improved anti-tank capabilities. Its low profile, thick frontal armor, and the 7.5 cm StuK 40 L/48 gun made it a formidable opponent, especially against Soviet T-34s. The Schürzen side skirts, added in 1943, provided additional protection against Soviet anti-tank rifles and shaped-charge weapons, further enhancing the StuG III's battlefield survivability.Assigned to the 3rd SS Panzer Division "Totenkopf," the StuG III Ausf. Gs were deployed during the Battle of Kursk in July 1943, a critical confrontation on the Eastern Front. Operation Citadel, the German offensive aimed at encircling and destroying Soviet forces at Kursk, involved some of the fiercest fighting of the war. The "Totenkopf" division was part of the northern pincer of the attack, tasked with breaking through heavily fortified Soviet defenses. The StuG III Ausf. Gs played a significant role in this effort, providing fire support to infantry and engaging Soviet armor at close and medium ranges. Despite the tactical advantages the StuGs offered, the German forces faced stiff resistance, and the Soviets' effective use of minefields, artillery, and counterattacks blunted the offensive.The battle ended in a Soviet victory, with the German attack halted and their forces eventually forced to retreat. However, the StuG III Ausf. Gs of the "Totenkopf" division demonstrated their durability and effectiveness in both offensive and defensive roles during the battle. They continued to serve on the Eastern Front, adapting to the increasing pressure from the numerically superior Red Army. By the end of 1943, the StuG III had solidified its reputation as one of the most successful and versatile armored vehicles in the German army, largely due to its adaptability and cost-efficiency in comparison to larger tanks.Whether for display or historical appreciation, this 1:72 scale model brings to life the engineering and history of one of World War II's most important armored units. It’s a perfect addition for collectors and enthusiasts of Eastern Front military history.SHIPPING INFO:We do combine shipping cost for two or more items purchased.
