Pz III Auf M

Auto Credit Based on Supermini555's Pz III Auf. M

German Engineers planned to fit a 105mm Kw.K. L/68 anti-tank gun upon the Pz III chassis to test the effectiveness of the gun. Upon testing, the Pz III experienced a bit of recoil when firing the gun. It was soon remedied by adding more armour and side skirts to increase the weight and its survivability. They were pleased with the tank, so they started mass-producing the tank, under the designation M.

The Pz. III Auf M features a lot of spaced armour to protect it from HEAT rounds or from Bazookas. If faced against this tank, its main weakness is its relatively light armour, at 50mm of hull armour and 10mm of spaced armour. The tank is relatively agile, mounting a 500hp engine to allow the 25 Ton tank to go to speeds of 40kph/24mph.

Credit will be given to JakeTheDogg for installing the modded wing guns.
