Pz Kpfw III Flammpanzer

Based on the reliable Pz Kpfw III Ausf M, 100 Pz Kpfw III Flammpanzer were produced between February and April 1943. Their design was as a result of the German experience during the bitter fighting in Stalingrad. The main difference was the replacement of the 5.0cm KwK L/60 gun with a 14mm Flammenwerfer and extra 30mm plates welded to the hull front. The flamethrower had an effective range on 55m to 60m.
