Commander cupola of Pz Kw III early types.

Post by tigre »

Hello to all :D; some info and a little query.............................

Commander cupola of Pz Kw III Ausf. A-D!

AFAIK the commander cupola of the Pz Kw Ausf. A-C were of the "dustbin" type and the Pz Kw Ausf. D had a new type of cast cupola, however I've seen some Pz Kw III Ausf. C with the newest type of cupola (similar Pz Kw III Ausf D). How easy was the cupolas exchange between these models? Any problem with the armor?
