Initially a mobile artillery piece that had been designed to deal with concrete fortifications, the appearance of Soviet armoured vehicles such as the KV-1 and the T-34 led to the adaptation of an anti-tank gun in the Sturmgeschütz, and to everyone's surprise, not only did it do well, not only did it do it excellently, but it is simply the German armoured vehicle that claimed the most casualties throughout the conflict, so it is worth asking. How did we go from a bunker buster to a perfect weapon for hunting tanks? We are going to find out right now. As on every occasion, your host Der Ausländer accompanies you, and without further ado, let's begin.
