Marder (7.62 cm) Tank-hunter Platoon

For the German army advancing deep into Russia, the lack of an effective and efficient means of penetrating the thick armour of the Soviet T-34 and KV-1 tanks proved to be a considerable obstacle. Fortunately for German forces, early victories on the Eastern front provided a welcome solution to their problem in the form of large numbers of captured Soviet field guns, abandoned by retreating defenders. Those captured field guns were rechambered for PaK 40 rounds and mounted to the chassis of the obsolete Panzer 38(t), the Marder was born—a tank-hunter that combined both the mobility to maneuver speedily and enough firepower to deal with Soviet tanks
