【 One Tough Finnish Tank 】 During
the Soviet-Finland War during WWII, the Finnish Army were provided with
Sturmeschutz III Ausf.G tanks from Germany which later became their
main tank until the end of the war. Equipped to the low profile hull of
the Ausf.G was a powerful, long-barreled 7.5cm anti-tank gun. Once they
had arrived in Finland, their Schürzen armor was removed, tool boxes
were placed on the rear deck, and modifications were made in order to
install Russian DT machine guns. In the spring of 1944, the Ausf.G
fought against Russian armored forces and protected Finland from
invasion. Afterwards, to improve defensive capabilities of the Ausf.G,
concrete blocks and logs were attached to the tank's hull. Even after
WWII, the Ausf.G continued to serve the Finnish army with distinction up
until the 1960s. |
