German Panzer Fortifications 1943–45

As the Axis Powers moved to the defensive in World War II, widespread use was made of tank turrets in defensive structures, wherever fortified lines were built in France, Italy or Germany itself. Along with obsolete French and Czech examples, Panther turrets mounted atop a subsurface steel or concrete bunker proved formidable, offering a low profile and formidable range and hitting power.

US Anti-Aircraft Armored Vehicles of World War II

While the M16 Multiple Gun Motor Carriage, with its quad .50-caliber machine guns, was the best-known halftracked anti-aircraft armored vehicle equipping US forces in 1941–45, the M13 and M15 also saw combat. Arriving too late for front-line service, the fully tracked M19 MGMC, mounting twin 40mm guns on the M24 Chaffee light tank chassis, made its debut in the Korean War.

Red Army Field Guns of World War II

During 1941–45 the Red Army fielded a wide array of veteran and newly developed artillery types, ranging from 76.2mm regimental and divisional guns and 122mm divisional howitzers and corps guns to 152mm howitzers. Central to the conduct of the Soviet way of war, these feared field guns were also employed by German and Finnish forces on World War II’s Eastern Front.

Sturmpanzers in World War II

Alongside the widely deployed Sturmgeschütze III and IV, Nazi Germany fielded a variety of urban assault vehicles, starting with the Sturm-Infanteriegeschütz 33B and continuing with the Sturmpanzer 43 ‘Brummbär’ and the Sturmtiger. Fully enclosed, these lumbering monsters provided devastating firepower in urban settings, from the struggle for Stalingrad to the Warsaw Uprising.

British Anti-Tank Armoured Vehicles of World War II

Fielded during the mobile desert battles of 1942–43, the Deacon mounted a 6-pdr anti-tank gun on a Matador truck chassis. As the fighting moved to Western Europe, the US M10 was issued to British, Canadian and Polish forces, notably the 17-pdr-equipped ‘Achilles’ variant. The 17-pdr also armed the innovative Archer tank destroyer, utilizing the Valentine chassis and serving in 1944–45.
