- HISTORICAL ASPECTS:
- The Late Production Sd. Kfz. 165 Hummel was a self-propelled howitzer used by the German military during World War II. It was designed to provide mobile artillery support to armored units, and was based on the reliable and versatile Panzer IV tank chassis.
- The Hummel saw action on both the Eastern and Western fronts, including the Battle of Kursk and the Battle of the Bulge. Its powerful 15 cm howitzer was capable of firing a variety of shells, including high-explosive, armor-piercing, and smoke.
- Despite its effectiveness on the battlefield, the Hummel suffered from a number of design flaws, including poor protection for the crew and limited ammunition storage. These limitations were eventually addressed with the introduction of the Wespe and the Nashorn, which incorporated lessons learned from the Hummel.
- Today, the Late Production Sd. Kfz. 165 Hummel is a popular subject for modelers and military history enthusiasts. Its distinctive appearance and unique role in the war make it a must-have for any serious collection.
