Grotelės – Sdkfz.138/1 – Wydawnictwo Militaria 101

Nors konstrukcijoje buvo naudojamas Pz.Kpfw. 38(t) korpusas, įskaitant originalius variklio dangčius, priekinė šarvų plokštė su vairuotojo ir radijo operatoriaus skydeliais ir kulkosvaidžio rutulinis laikiklis buvo pašalinti. Taigi Sd.Kfz. 138/1 was the first modified vehicle without the original heavy machine gun ZB vd7 (MG-37(t»), which was replaced by a portable standard German machine gun. In place of the original fro nt plate. the vehicle was fitled with a new 25 mm thick plate angled at 17°. At the same time. this 150 cm high plate also acted as the gun’s shield. In the lower right corner there was a cast visor for the driver, in the middle a deep opening for the gun’s barrel, and in the upper left hand corner another small opening for the periscopic sight of the gun. The radio operator was moved into the open fighting compartment, where he functioned as an auxiliary loader when necessary.
