Historical Facts

The Sd.Kfz. 164 Nashorn (German for "rhinoceros") is a self-propelled anti-tank gun that entered service with the German Army in 1943. It was designed to effectively counter heavy Soviet tanks such as the T-34 and IS-2. Armed with the powerful 88 mm PaK 43 gun, the Nashorn could penetrate the thickest Allied armor from a considerable distance. It served mainly on the Eastern Front, including in battles on Polish territory in 1944, but also saw action on the Western Front. Its light armor and exposed construction required great skill from the crew, but the Nashorn’s firepower placed it among the most dangerous "tank destroyers" of its era.
