About this vehicle
An option for modernizing the Panzerkampfwagen 38(t) tank, proposed in November 1944 by the Krupp company. The project's goal was to increase firepower by mounting a simplified turret of the Pz.Kpfw. IV tank with a 7.5 cm Kw.K. 40 L/48 gun. The project was terminated during the design phase.
