Dragon Army Posted September 23, 2002 Share Posted September 23, 2002 . . .of these two types: The Marder III Ausf H, or the Marder III Ausf M? (the M is the model we see in CMBO, the H is the one seen in SPR with the more forward positioned gun/crew area) Anyone? Was a certain model used more on the East front than the west? Like, more Ausf H's in the west, and more Ausf M's in the east? [ September 23, 2002, 12:37 AM: Message edited by: Dragon Army ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad Harrison Posted September 23, 2002 Share Posted September 23, 2002 IIRC, the Marder III was the most common. I see the Marders as a desperate attempt to put the longer 75mm Pak gun onto whatever they had in the dump. The marders all were on old, outclassed tank chassis. But, it seems that the Marder III was the most common. Chad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Army Posted September 23, 2002 Author Share Posted September 23, 2002 I'm sorry. The Ausf H and M I was referring to are both Marder III's (just diffrent sub-types) Anyone know the answer to this question? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorpius1001 Posted September 23, 2002 Share Posted September 23, 2002 I would think that All those Chech Tank chassis lying around (T-28's?? God I SHOULD know this at least)would make the most fodder for an AT platform, thus the maruder 1 or 2 being most common...??? GROGNARDS TO THE RESCUE!

Jagdwyrm Posted September 23, 2002 Share Posted September 23, 2002 According to Encyclopia of German Tanks of WW2...Ausf H 242 produced and 175 converted from Pz Kpfw 38(t) Ausf M has 975 produced listed as well it shows the Sd Kfz 139 (the 7.62cm armed one) as 344 produced and 19 conversions.
