I dont know why its not as common for the allied armies to use Artillery as AT Guns, except for the fact that we had plentiful supplies of the right equipment. Bazookas, mines etc etc.
The Germans intended the 88 to be used only as a Flak weapon, but at somepoint, they were used as AT Guns because that was all they had. They had great success using the 88 in that roll, and the word was passed around as to its success in that roll.
It wasnt till late 43 or sometime in 44, when the Germans made their own version of the "Stovepipe" and Panzerfausts, so they were forced to improvise--or die.
