Once again the author dug into the original records to find the history of some of the rarest armored vehicles created by the Germans. While the mainstay for the battles in North Africa were the Pz.Kpfw. III and IV, Rommel's army troop tested numerous unusual weapons in combat. Nowhere else can the enthusiast or modeler find the history of the Panzer-Selbstfahrlafette II (also known as HKP 902), a unique design for armored semi-tracked tank destroyers with a powerful 7.5cm L/41 guns, 15cm S.I.G.33 B Sfl., the special armored self-propelled gun using Pz.Kpfw. II components and powered by a Büssing-NAG V-8 engine, the rare 15cm S.I.G.33 B mounted on a Pz.Kpfw. III by the troops in the field, 15cm s.F.H.13 mounted on the French Lorraine tractor chassis, initially created for a special action by Rommel, 7.62cm Russian anti-tank gun mounted on the semi-tracked Zugkraftwagen 5t, and the Landwasserschlepper issued to support Rommel's Special Forces in a planned attack behind enemy lines. 55 new and rare high quality photos illustrate these most unusual armored vehicles in Rommel's Funnies.
