An Unnecessary Upgrade | 7.5 cm PaK 42 L/70 mit Kugelblende auf VK9.03

The Sturmgeschütz III, or StuG III for short, was a German assault gun and the most produced full-tracked armored fighting vehicle of that nation during the Second World War. Despite being designed for infantry support, it received a long 75 mm gun in 1942, which significantly increased its firepower against tanks. As the tides turned and the Wehrmacht began fighting a defensive war on all fronts, StuGs fell into their element as potent tank destroyers, but despite their success, further enhancements in firepower were considered. One such consideration was to rearm the StuG III with an even longer 7.5 cm (2.95 in) gun, derived from the Panther tank project. By incorporating the longer gun, the StuG III would have been capable of engaging enemy tanks from greater distances and with more penetrating power. Another project developed in parallel involved reusing the diminutive chassis of the VK9.03 light tank, which was to be armed with the same large 7.5 cm L/70 gun. However, neither of these projects progressed beyond the proposal stage, likely due to various factors such as resource limitations, shifting priorities, and the evolving nature of the war.
