Historical Information

The Sd.Kfz.250/8 Ausf. B, also known as “Stummel,” is a light half-track armored personnel carrier equipped with the short-barreled 7.5 cm KwK 37 L/24 gun (designated K.51 in this version). Produced and used by the German army mainly between 1943 and 1945, it served on all major fronts of World War II, including the Eastern Front, Western Front, North Africa, and Italy. Thanks to its mounted gun, it provided fire support for infantry and was used to destroy lightly armored targets. It was a valuable addition to Germany’s mechanized infantry and reconnaissance units.
