WOT里可能作为德系新金币SPG/TD的坦克

　　This is something I foundrecently, could make a decent lowtier German tank destroyer. Most people knowthe Marder III Ausf.M vehicle - it was built on the 38(t) Ausf.M chassis, whichwas modified by moving the engine to the middle, giving the vehicle itsdistinctive look (with the superstructure moved in the back). It*s sad thatAusf.M will most likely not appear in World of Tanks, at least not in the 2ndGerman branch - I can speculate the reason for that is that the Marder IIIAusf.H was equipped historically with both the Pak 36(r) and Pak 40 guns (likethe Marder II was), while Ausf.M only carried the Pak 40/3.

　　这是SS最近才发现的一个小玩意，可以当一部很好的德国低级坦歼。许多人都了解黄鼠狼IIIM型，以38t M型的车体为基础，将引擎移至中部，使得这个坦克具备了独特的外观(战斗室后置)。据称黄IIIM型不太可能出现在WoT中(至少在德国TD2线中)---SS猜测原因是历史上的黄IIIH装备了Pak 36(r)和Pak 40，而M型却只有PaK 40/3

　　Either way, in 1944 there was anattempt to modify the Ausf.M chassis into yet another universal Waffenträger.It started as a Mörserträger (mortar carrier), but gradually more guns wereenvisaged.

　　不管怎么说，在1944年，有将M型的车体改装成另一部通用武器运载车的计划。一开始是作为迫击炮载车设计，但是后来逐渐采用了更多的主炮。

　　As you can see, thedefining difference is the very steep sloped frontal armor (67 degrees in fact)- more parameters (such as the armor thickness) are unknown. It was projectedto be equipped with various guns: 50mm, 73mm, 81mm, 100mm and finally 210mmmortars (in its "mortar carrier" variant), but also with 75mm and100mm low-pressure guns, 75mm PaK and finally, 75mm, 105mm and even 150mmhowitzers.

　　从上图可以看出来，该坦克的一个明显特征是倾角非常大的正面装甲(法线67度)，但是诸如厚度一类的数据还未知晓，它计划装备多种主炮：50mm，73mm，81mm，100mm甚至210mm迫击炮(在其“迫击炮运载车”的变体上)，还有75mm和100mm低膛压火炮，75mmPaK系列，75mm、105mm甚至150mm榴弹炮。

　　In the end, theproject was rejected. Only one mockup was ever made in 1944 and after that, theGermans (who preferred the Waffenträger designs based on 38(d) platform, seeing- correctly - the original 38(t) as insufficient) lost interest and the projectwas scrapped.

　　但是最后，该方案被放弃，仅在1944年造出了一部样车。之后，德国人(偏好基于38(d)底盘的武器运载车---他们是明智的---38(t)的车体已经没有多少潜力可以挖掘)便对此失去了兴趣。
