Historical Background of Sd.Kfz. 164 Hummel

The Hummel (German for "bumblebee") is a German self-propelled gun, officially designated as Sd.Kfz. 164, developed in response to the need for artillery support for armored units. This ten-ton vehicle was based on the lengthened chassis of the Pz.Kpfw. III and IV. Armed with a powerful 15 cm sFH 18 howitzer, it participated in operations on both the Eastern and Western Fronts, including the Battle of Kursk in 1943. The “Early Version” is distinguished by early hull and superstructure features typical for the first production series.
