Those are Hetzers. They were made, as I recall, off of a Czech tank called a "Praga" or something like that. had a 75mm, low profile easy to make Tank Destroyer.

I made a model of one when I was a kid (Tamiya).

How cute! I bet it gets good gas mileage. But ... there really is no German M3 (you know that, right)?

Achtung! The GERMAN spelling of my name now?

THERE ya go! But ... for all intensive purposes ... you can use the M3 (as you currently are). Now ... why again do you insist on the M16 when you have the Osti?

SdKfz 7/1: 20 mm Flak 38 4-gun mounting. Ammunition was carried in a trailer.

The Jadgpanzer Hetzer was built on the Czech LT vz38 tank, or as it was called in German use the PzKpfw 38(t). The Germans "aquired" them from the Czechs after they didnt need them anymore. The Germans were glad to have them as in some ways they were better than the frontline models they had at the time, though very quickly the PzKpfw 38(t) became obsolete with the introduction of newer units.

I actually think the horse drawn wagon should be the primary German resupply GV, as their army, even up to the very end of the war, was predominantly non-mechanized, they moved with beasts of burden.

But since AH doesnt have the horse properly modeled I guess the M3 will do as a substitute.
