Фотогалерея на Насхорне, The Насторн (буквально Rhinoceros), первоначально упоминаемый как Hornisse (шершень на немецком языке) был немецким истребителем танков Второй мировой войны. Он был разработан как промежуточное решение в 1942 году и был вооружен мощной 88-мм противотанковой пушкой. Несмотря на легкую броню и высокий силуэт, он оставался на вооружении до конца войны и демонстрировал, что это довольно хороший истребитель танков.

General Characteristics and Role
The Nashorn (German for “Rhinoceros”), initially known as the Hornisse (“Hornet”), was a German tank destroyer (Panzerjäger) developed during World War II. Its design philosophy focused on mounting the most powerful available anti-tank gun onto a reliable, if lightly armored, chassis to prioritize long-range engagement and superior firepower. It was based on a common chassis component (Geschützwagen III/IV), which combined parts from the Panzer III and Panzer IV tanks. The Nashorn excelled at destroying Allied tanks from long distances, but its open-topped fighting compartment and thin armor made it highly vulnerable to enemy infantry, artillery, and close-range combat. It served on both the Eastern and Western Fronts from mid-1943 until the end of the war.
