<strong>The</strong> Sturmpanzer IV was built on the chassis of the PzKpfw IV tank. It was designed as a heavily armored<br />

assault gun to supplement the armored forces in the artillery role, although its 150mm L/12 gun could<br />

demolish a tank if it was lucky enough to hit it! Between the Springs of 1943 and 1945, 298 StuPz IV<br />

were manufactured.<br />

Options: Zimmerit antimagnetic mine coating, Schuerzen armor skirts.
