Assault guns were armored vehicles armed with large-caliber guns designed to provide close support fire to infantry troops in battle. They were particularly effective in providing suppressive fire against fortified enemy positions and to knock down obstacles as troops advanced.The most famous vehicle used by the German Sturmartillerie was the Sturmgeschütz III (abbreviated as StuG III). This armored vehicle was based on the hull of the Panzer III tank and mounted a 75 mm cannon. The StuG III became one of Germany's most produced and used vehicles during World War II, proving crucial in infantry support and troop protection on the battlefield.Panzerjäger: The term "Panzerjäger" in German means "tank hunter." The Panzerjäger were units that specialized in using anti-tank weapons and armored vehicles to counter the advance of enemy tanks. These units were equipped with anti-tank guns, assault guns or other light armored vehicles designed to shoot down enemy tanks and provide support to troops deployed on the battlefield.A famous example of a Panzerjäger was the "Jagdpanzer IV" tank destroyer. Based on the hull of the Panzer IV tank, the Jagdpanzer IV mounted a 75 mm anti-tank gun and had a low silhouette to reduce exposure to enemy fire. This vehicle proved to be an advanced threat against opposing tanks while having some properties possessed to its hull and mobility.Both of these units, the Sturmartillerie and the Panzerjäger, played important roles in German combat tactics in WWII.
