The Marder III H officially designated Marder III H (Sd.Kfz. Index: Sd.Kfz. 138) is a German tank destroyer. It was introduced in Update 1.47 "Big Guns".
The Marder III H is a step above the basic Marder III. As it is in Germany's open-topped tank destroyer line, its calling card is its superb firepower, in fact, it has a powerful gun for its BR range. APCBC is almost always enough to penetrate and destroy any tank on the battlefield, and with APCR, it has a very high penetration for its battle rating range.
The Marder III Ausf. H mounts a 75 mm gun, slightly surpassing those on the late Panzer IV's; thus its only disadvantages are its weak armour and its open fighting compartment.
Being a modified Pz.38(t) tank, it is one of the more mobile of the German tanks, nearly matching some Russian tanks. The gun is better at close range and the gun shield is curved to the sides, unlike the earlier Marder III.
