Description
nology scientists looked to enhance the weaponry they were creating they trialed a towed Schwerefeld Projektor to look at its suitability in infantry formations. Although it required a small generator trailer to make it independent of a larger powerpack or vehicle, the weapon was well received. It has since been issued to several new heavy infantry regiments, replacing the older and heavier PaK 40 anti-tank guns. Entrusted to, and crewed by, the new elite Heavy Armoured Infantry, it has replaced some PaK 40 guns in many units as it is lighter, more compact and easier to manoeuvre.
