The '''Sturmgeschütz IV''' (abbreviated to '''StuG IV''') was a German tank destroyer that was used during the later stages of [[World War II]]. The tank was built from mounting the [[Sturmgeschütz III]] superstructure on top of the chassis of a [[Panzer IV]]. This was the result of production of the StuG III being unable to meet demand due to an Allied bombing raid on the manufacturer of the StuG III in November 1943. Over the course of December 1943 to May 1945, 1,108 StuG IVs were produced, with an additional 31 StuG IVs constructed from damaged Panzer IV hulls.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sturmgesch%C3%BCtz_IV</ref>{{Clear}}
