Mobile anti-tank plataform for Ostheer, to be used in combination with Panzerjagers.
Model and textures by BurroDiablo, animations by Tiger.
The pic is nice, but can they win a T-34/76 or a M4 Sherman in a dual?
a single t34 or sherman yes
more then one then they need definetly support
What gun used ? Is that the Russian 7,62cm gun or German 7,5cm?
russian one afaik
Sd.Kfz.132 with the Soviet 76.2mm m1936 F22, also known in German service as the Pak 36(r)
I love this new skins of uniforms finally they don't wear white ones.
Great job gentlemen. =D

Why u named this vehicle Marder 2 it looks more like Marder 3.
@Sturminfantrist
Because it is a Marder II and not a Marder III ;). The designation of this vehicle is SdKfz. 132.

Sry ,think at first it is a 139 Marder3 because of Tracks and Wheels( looks a bit like from 38(t) series), here a Photo from our Bundesarchiv mistakly named Marder2 but its a SdKfz139 Mrdr3
now i know ur typ is Pz2D chassis

The wheel texture is default from the Hetzer and will likely be changed before release :)
are you sure thats a Marder II? it looks more like a Marder III, Sd.Kfz. 139

that might be because of the tracks though...
@ Lloydboy
Marder 3 looks similar but with 38t wheels but this Screenshot is made in dark and at an angle were it looks like Marder3 and also the Chassis irritate a bit like BurroDiablo stated above its an interim Version ( until the right Pz2D chassis is made by defs) this Version is with Hetzer Pz38t chassis so it comes to misinterpretations until the final version comes out. but by close examination u see that the superstructures are from Marder2. At first i think same like u
Now that you mentioned the 7,62cm Pak36(r), will you modify the ZIS-3 gun to make it a Pak36(r) and give it to the Ostheer as some sort of reward unit? (i.e. to replace 3,7cm Pak36)
