It also mentions the addition of a machine gun starting at and various stugs throughout the video are seen with a machine gun. Am I doing this stuff right? I feel like the odd one out here and put down my sources as best I could. As I said earlier, still new to this kind of stuff. I really hope this suggestion is implemented. You've made it clear what your suggestion is and you've got two sources for it. Looks at least from my experience like everything is in order. Thank you for the feedback. And please have all other MGs manned by a member of the crew commander, radio op. Good suggestion! How is that odd? Is that even modeled on the current mgs in the game? I thought it was odd because I had never seen that kind of set up on a stug III. Also thanks for the information. This vehicle should get its machine-gun, just like the others that are still missing.

M10 Tank Destroyer Vs Stug Iii Assault Gun ebook PDF | Download and Re Staff officers of both Germany and America who supported or opposed each concept are discussed, including their supporting or contradicting doctrines for the respective vehicle. Development and refinement of each vehicle is delved into with satisfying detail. StuG crews were artillerymen, trained accordingly, and statistically shot straighter. M10 did not arrive in battle in its original configuration, its development well documented. As is the StuG III, which evolved through different guns and superstructures, including a howitzer type. Additionally, the Nazis needed more StuGs and this led to an outsourcing that created an entirely new vehicle based on a foreign design. Happily for seekers of technical minutia the author defines and uses terminology and abbreviations instead of common slang and post-war jargon. In fact, the back of the title page features Author's Notes defining conventions of unit terminology; weight and measurements; military symbols key; conversions between metric and standard. Organization and deployment of M10 and StuG units is examined, including a redesignation of Wehrmacht formations. Further, combat use of these two duelists from on is presented prior to the period this book covers, including action in Tunisia and Italy. This sets the stage for the October battle recounted herein. America watched the massed panzers rampage across Europe in and scrambled to create a countermeasure. McNair and Maj. Bruce, and the different theories on America's antidote to the panzer plague. Guns aren't accurate without sights and this subject is discussed. Command and control is informative with its discussion of different bands of radio frequencies and their place in the RF net. Protection examines the armor plating of the machines. The benefits and drawbacks of each vehicles' armor configuration is presented, with further development noted. This book examines these AFVs in combat during the second battle for Aachen. It presents a good background to the strategic situation. German and US plans are briefly examined, including units assigned to realize them. Combat is described a mix of small unit actions and larger formations. A fascinating micro-story is The Reluctant Dragon of Alsdorf which describes a solo StuG loose in a US-held town, with each side's attempts to vanquish their foe. Finally, Mr. Zaloga wraps up the book with Statistics and Analysis. Interestingly, some of his conclusions contradicts the conventional wisdom I have read for decades, including US Army after-action reports. Post-war AFV development influenced by both vehicles is presented. Photographs, artwork, graphics Mr. Zaloga's text is supported by a great selection of photographs, original artwork, and data tables. Dozens of black-and-white photographs bring these vehicles to life and reveal vehicle details. A single color photograph of a restored StuG interior offers excellent reference material. Most of the photos are clear although there are a few that obviously were shot by amateurs in less than ideal conditions. Many are battlefield shots. All are useful and modelers, historians, reenactors and vehicle restorers can glean a great deal from them. Modelers can gain inspiration for subjects and dioramas from the photos even though M10s and StuGs are not in every photo: a US roadblock with a 3in anti- tank gun supported by an M2. Two gems sure to annoy "that vehicle shouldn't be in this diorama" purists are photos showing obsolete StuG III Ausf C and Ausf D impressed to late-war frontline service due to the German crisis of supply! Illustrator Richard Chasemore fortifies the book with original artwork. One disappointment is that there is only a single battle scene in the book; most Duel books I have include the illustration s used on the cover. Neither is found inside this book. Regardless, the artwork is excellent: 1. SprGr 34 HE 7. M10 Ammunition a. M10 with crew positions. I have tried to reconcile this with other sources yet can not determine if the StuK 40 had shorter cartridges as depicted. This should have been addressed in the text. Duel Ser.

  • FM 17-25 Assault Gun Section and Platoon
    FM 17-25 Assault Gun Section and Platoon Separate from tanks and tank destroyers are the as- sault guns. Some critical design and mission features make assault guns distinct: 1. Assault guns, though they are modified tanks, carry guns of larger caliber than matching tanks. These guns can be used in direct or indirect fire as the mission demands, while tanks generally engage point targets. Because the main armament installed in an assault gun is usually a howitzer system, its velocity and maximum effective range in direct fire are less than those used in comparable tanks: that is, a 75 or 76mm tank main gun has a high muzzle velocity that allows their kinetic energy (shot) rounds to penetrate most enemy frontal armor. Because the 105 in an M4 assault gun has a lower muzzle velocity, a shot round is not practical. An assault gun may engage an enemy tank, but instead of an AT round it uses a HEAT (high explosive antitank) round that can penetrate steel ar- mor at much lower velocities. 2. Assault guns are quite different from tank de- stroyers; a TD is designed to provide higher muzzle velocity and larger caliber than a comparable tank, but cannot provide the kind of HE direct or indirect fire the assault gun can deliver. (Why not just put a large caliber gun in the tank in the first place and for- get about TD’s? Answer: the standard M4 tank was designed to carry a 75mm main gun, and the turret is not suitable for larger cannons without basic modifi- cations: the recoil travel would require more room, which means a larger turret “bustle”, and a much longer tube length would unbalance the weight on the bearing ring on which the turret rotates, requiring a counterweight on the back of the bustle.

  • Tank-Infantry Notes What Can We Learn About Tank-Infantry Coordination by Examining WWII German Assault Gun Employment?
    Tank-Infantry Notes What can we learn about tank-infantry coordination by examining WWII German Assault Gun employment? Notes on German Assault Guns from On Armor, by Bruce I. Gudmundsson. Westport, CN: Praeger, 2004. Chapter 8: The Armored Guerilla 1. Erich von Manstein invented the assault gun – a self-propelled infantry gun, mobile, heavily-gunned, and armored, similar to a tank – to increase the combat power of infantry units. He believed that the German infantry was too dependent on artillery support, and needed an assault gun to shoot HE into machine-gun nests, AT guns, houses, and enemy tanks. This preserved tank units for concentrated employment. His assault gun idea was similar to the British, French, and American ‘infantry tank’ concept. Because an assault gun would fight with infantry, it would not need to provide its own security. 2. The armored assault gun could maneuver throughout the battlefield. It could move under enemy artillery fire, enter a ‘hot’ battle, and also withdraw under direct and indirect fire. 3. Clever tactics made the assault gun an effective antitank weapon. Ambush positions permitted assault guns to wait until the decisive moment. In 1942, the assault guns of the Grossdeutschland Division killed more tanks than the division’s tank units. In the attack, assault guns supported the advance of tanks and infantry from covered positions. 4. The assault gun was more survivable than the tank. Integrated combined-arms employment, greater reliability, lower silhouette, better observation for the commander, and better training insured that by late WWII, the life expectancy of an assault gun was seven times greater than a German tank.
