Footnotes

1. 7,5cm Kw.K.37. Source: Jentz, Thomas L: Tank Combat in North Africa. Although the 7,5cm Stu.K.37 is ballistically the same as the 7,5cm Kw.K.37, the accuracy is specified only for the Kw.K.37 in the reference. It is likely that the accuracy for the Stu.K.37 would be similar. [up]

2. 7,5cm Kw.K.42. Source: Jentz, Thomas L: Tank Combat in North Africa. Although the 7,5cm Stu.K.42 is ballistically the same as the 7,5cm Kw.K.42, the accuracy is specified only for the Kw.K.42 in the reference. It is likely that the accuracy for the Stu.K.42 would be similar. [up]
