15cm s.FH 18/1 Hummel Sd.Kfz.165
The 15cm s.FH 18/1 Hummel Sd.Kfz.165 was a German self-propelled artillery piece used during World War II, known for its powerful 15 cm s.FH 18/1 heavy field howitzer mounted on a modified Panzer III/IV chassis. Named Hummel, or “Bumblebee” in German, this vehicle combined artillery firepower with mobility, addressing the need for self-propelled artillery that could keep pace with advancing armored units in Blitzkrieg operations. Developed in 1942 by Alkett and Rheinmetall-Borsig, the Hummel became a valuable asset to Germany’s artillery forces, providing support for tanks and infantry during major offensives on both the Eastern and Western fronts.
