What’s it for? Bunkers?
General reinforced and Concrete targets, as well as range and effect increase beyond the Gr.19 Be.
But would also carry certain AP performance.
Was it ever actually put together?
yes please
I’m personally very much looking forward to the Hummel, especially if the APHEDS shell is added with it. I don’t see a great future for the Grille and Wespe, though they wouldn’t hurt to have.
Grille would be funny just for the option to donk people with a Stielgranate 42. Because what amount to vehicle-launched rifle grenades are hilarious.
I’m sold
Just adding my +1. This is one of the vehicles I want most in game.
Maybe we could have a huge-calibre themed update? I’d love to see the T92 HMC as a contemporary along with anything else that has a 170mm+ gun.
I ve been wanting this for years so much copy and paste with m109
Now this is an artillery piece +1
I want GIANT APFSDS with HE filler, in other words, GIANT APHEFSDS
As I would love 17cm gun, 21cm one would potentially have some interesting shells.
There’s nothing to say we can’t have both!
I found a bunch more pictures of this thing. Maybe adding them to the suggestion post itself will help with a more complete view for possible devs?
I can post them here if you want
Shure go ahead.
Here is what i found so far.
Excluding the supposed ‘‘wooden mock-up turret area’’ since that is from a panther model and widely mislabeld.
There will some doubles. Either for photo quality or bigger/smaller field of view on the picture. Can remove the doubles if requested.

Note: engine appears to still be in the vehicles at this point. Pictures outside in the yard show a mostly stripped vehicle.

Hope this helps

21cm variant
17cm variant
forgot these 3 drawings, don’t know if they add any value.
While i dont have it (maybe someone finds it)
There is a document about the Aphedsfs round for the 21 cm gun, which most likely has the velocity and other info.
