SdKfz234/2 "Puma"
« on: April 11, 2011, 05:09:48 AM »
Since we are still getting some loving on GV side I'd like to suggest this addition:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sd_Kfz_234

And this with 50mm gun.

There's a 75mm for the 234.. Doesn't that 50mm have about the same penetration as the M8, on a slower vehicle?

But the 75mm version had no turret.

in the at role, as small as that thing is...turret is just a waste of steel...as for speed, 53mph vs 56mph isn't bad.

I'd take the Puma over the M8. :aok

Not only a straight comparison POV but on a "redundant" POV. Similar speed to M8, similar gun, similar armor. Not that I wouldn't like to have it either way.

It's a good thing they're so 'redundant'. It means Axis would have a fairly balanced
GV to use in scenarios etc. instead of substituting an m8 for, say, an armored car.
