Descriptionof Hummel & Nashorn/Hornisse: German Self-Propelled Artillery in World War II
Manufacturer

The "Hummel" ("bumblebee") and "Nashorn" ("rhinoceros") are two of Germany's most widely recognized self-propelled artillery pieces. The "Hummel", with its heavy field howitzer, was indispensable as heavy field artillery despite its open-top fighting compartment. The "Nashorn", also known as the "Hornisse" ("hornet"), utilized the same chassis but mounted the formidable 88 mm antitank gun, becoming one of the most feared pieces of antitank artillery, or Panzerjäger ("tank hunter"). This book chronicles the development and use of these vehicles from concept to combat. Through dozens of archival photos, many never before published, as well as detailed photographs of some of the finest existent examples of surviving vehicles, these iconic armored fighting vehicles are explored, and their history is explained.
