Hummel (German: “bumblebee”) was a self-propelled gun based on the Geschützwagen III/IV chassis and armed with a 15 cm howitzer. It was used by the German Wehrmacht during the Second World War from early 1943 until the end of the war. The full name was Panzerfeldhaubitze 18M auf Geschützwagen III/IV (Sf) Hummel, Sd.Kfz. 165. On February 27, 1944, Hitler ordered the name Hummel to be dropped as it was deemed inappropriate for a fighting vehicle.

General Characteristics and Role
The Jagdpanzer Hummel (German for “Bumblebee”) was a German self-propelled artillery vehicle used by the Wehrmacht during World War II. Its official full designation was Panzerfeldhaubitze 18M auf Geschützwagen III/IV (Sf) Hummel, Sd. Kfz. 165. The vehicle was designed to provide mobile, long-range indirect fire support to Panzer (armored) divisions, allowing the artillery to keep pace with fast-moving tank units. It was based on the specially designed Geschützwagen III/IV hybrid chassis, which combined components from the Panzer III (steering and driving) and the Panzer IV (suspension and engine). The gun crew was protected by a large, open-topped, lightly armored compartment in the rear.
