This Tank Power volume presents the Marder III, one of the most important German self-propelled anti-tank guns of World War II. Developed on the chassis of the Czechoslovak Panzer 38(t) tank, the vehicle was introduced in 1942 as an emergency response to increasingly powerful Soviet and Allied armour.
The publication examines the development, construction and combat use of the Marder III Sd.Kfz. 139 and related variants armed with captured Soviet 7.62 cm guns and German 75 mm anti-tank weapons. Despite relatively light armour and an open fighting compartment, the Marder III proved highly effective on both the Eastern and Western Fronts.
Richly illustrated with archival photographs, camouflage profiles, technical drawings and plans, this volume is an excellent reference for collectors, military historians and modellers interested in German tank destroyers and Wehrmacht AFV development.
