Rare WWII Marder I Geschützwagen Lorraine Schlepper - Sd.KFz.135 - footage.
During the German attack on France from May and June 1940, several guns, tanks and infantry weapons were captured. The fact is that in 1940 the French army had strong medium and heavy tanks in service that were generally well to very well armoured. Some of the French tanks and armored tractors, like the Lorraine 37L, were converted into self-propelled guns.
One was fitted with an 7.5 cm PaK 40 anti-tank gun and the other with an artillery howitzer, like the 10.5cm leFH 18/40 and the 15 cm sFH 13/1 in 1942.
A major advantage of mechanized guns was the fact that mobility increased and horses could be dispensed with. The vehicle was not very well armored.
Not only the Lorraine Schlepper was used for this project, but the FCM the H39 were also used.
The Geschützwagen Lorraine Schlepper were deployed in Africa and in Normandy in June 1944. They were assigned to the Sturmgeschütz-Abteilung 200 (part of the 21. Panzer-Division). Some examples were in service with the 8th Panzerartillerie Abteilung.
