The Sturmgeschütz III (Stung III) assault gun was Germany's most produced armored fighting vehicle during World War II. It was built on the chassis of the proven Panzer III tank, replacing the turret with a fixed casemate and mounting a more powerful gun. Initially intended as a mobile, armored light gun for direct-fire support for infantry, the Stung was continually modified and was widely employed as a tank destroyer. Although originally an assault weapon became a weapon of defense.
