Historical Information

The Hetzer, or Sd.Kfz.138/2, was a German tank destroyer whose production began in 1944 during World War II. Based on a Czechoslovakian self-propelled gun project, the Hetzer was widely used on all fronts at the end of the conflict, especially on the Eastern Front and during the defense of the Reich in 1945. It was known for its low profile and good ballistic protection, which made it difficult to detect and destroy.
