Pak 40 Anti Tank Gun

A German 7.5cm Pak 40 based off of those in gm_ordnance_v2. This one doesn't shoot, but it may require gm_ordnance by Citizen_001 for textures or whatever. Somewhat shakey as it is all welded together, but it holds up. You might need to freeze the undercarriage in place as the gun tends to tip downward. Good for WWII scenes. Enjoy!

Performance (From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7.5_cm_Pak_40)

The weapon was effective against almost every Allied tank until the end of the war. The Pak 40 was much heavier than the 5 cm Pak 38; its decreased mobility meant that it was difficult or even impossible to move without an artillery tractor on boggy ground.

The Pak 40 was first used in Russia where it was needed to combat the newest Soviet tanks. It was designed to fire the same low-capacity APCBC, HE and HL projectiles which had been standardized for use in the long barreled Kampfwagenkanone KwK 40 tank-mounted guns. In addition there was an APCR shot (Panzergranate 40) for the Pak 40, a munition which - reliant on supplies of tungsten - eventually became very scarce.
