Der "Hetzer" didn't show up till 44, almost 6-months after.
Stug IV (actually StuK 40)... hybrid of StuG III superstructure on Pz Kw IV chassis. Word for word from - German tanks of world war 2 vonSenger und Etterlin.
Hetzer variants mit "flam" thrower und L-70 (Panther gun) in the 38(d) versions. Used by Swiss post war.
The Hetzer is a "cutie-pie". Good mobility, quite deadly, well sloped & armored, and easy to hide because of its size. A good use of the 38 chassis.
