PzKpfw III Ausf. H (Sd. Kfz. 141)
    Copyright (C) 1996 by James Lowry (jlowry@tfb.com).

        After getting combat experience in France, the Panzer III was
    redesigned.  It was found that thicker armor would be needed, as well as
    several detail changes.  308 Panzer III Hs were built in late 1940.
        The adjusted cost is pre-WWII even though this variant was developed
    after the war started. The main armament is a 50mm anti-tank gun
    (crit|*|*|no|*|*|*|1/3|1) with AP (cr|6d*7|13|700|2 mi.) and HE
    (exp|10d[2d]|11|n/a|1.5 mi) ammunition and a MG34 machine gun
    (crit|cr|7d|19|10|1,000|3,900|15*|50) in the same mount in the turret, and
    another on the front of the hull.  The turret is motor-driven or turned
    with a hand crank.
        The Panzer III H (v. 1.0) is a TL 6 vehicle [July 96 errata sheet] with
    a weapon from High Tech and my armor sloping table.
