Pak-40 Anti -tank Gun w/Sandbags

The German 7.5cm Pak 40 became one of the principal towed anti-tank guns of the later Second World War. It offered greater effectiveness against improved Allied armor than earlier light anti-tank weapons, but its weight made movement by the crew difficult. Pak 40 batteries often fought from concealed, prepared positions. Sandbags represent local field protection and do not create a separate official gun model. Its low shield protected against some fragments and small-arms fire, but the gun remained vulnerable if located and engaged by artillery or armor. Crews relied on concealment and the selection of favorable firing positions. It also supplied ordnance for several self-propelled anti-tank installations.
