A German Stug III assault gun penetrated by a soviet shell
Probably 76mm or 85mm HE going off of the damage. The schürzen on WWII German AFV’s was only 8mm thick, so it’s not difficult to produce the deformation seen in the photo. If it were a 152mm HE round, there’d be considerably more damage to the running gear and the schürzen would have almost certainly been torn from the tank.
