Historical facts and usage of the tank

The Pz.Kpfw. III Ausf. A (Sd Kfz 141) was the first version of the legendary Panzer III medium tank, developed for the army of the Third Reich just before the outbreak of World War II. The Ausf. A variant was built as part of a pilot series (Produktionserie 0) in 1937–1938 and was characterized by a unique, for later standards, suspension configuration with seven road wheels. Equipped with a 37 mm KwK 36 cannon and two MG 34 machine guns, it served as the basis for further development of the Panzer III series. These vehicles were mainly used as training and test machines, only occasionally appearing on the frontlines during combat operations in the first months of World War II. This tank was a key element in the development of German armored forces in the pre-war period and during the Polish campaign of 1939.
