Total production of the Ausf G alone was close to 7000 vehicles; a further 1299 were equipped with the 10.5cm gun as self-propelled howitzers. This book reveals how the Sturmgeschutz provided the backbone of Germany's amoured forces in every theatre and on every front during the long fighting-retreat of the final years of the war.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDesign and development - the Long 75mm and 105mm Howitzer; Production modifications and improvements 1942 to 1945; Production history Manufacturing plants of Alkett and Miag; Combat capabilities; Operational history; Tactical employment; Organisation; Combat history examples; Commentary on the colour artwork; Index","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51138416902487,"sku":"9781841761824","price":12.34,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781841761824.jpg?v=1751919337","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/sturmgeschutz-iii-and-iv-1942-45-9781841761824","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
