The Sd.Kfz.251/22 is a further tank destroyer variant of the widely used German Sd.Kfz.251 series of halftracks, already familiar to some tankers. Combining its small size with an everything but small high velocity anti-tank cannon, the unique Sd.Kfz. 251/22 will soon await tankers as one of the main prizes in the upcoming new season of War Thunder Battle Pass!
Sd.Kfz.251/22, tank destroyer, Germany, rank II, premium
Pros
- Devastating cannon
- Premium bonuses
Cons
- Poor protection
- Average mobility
In the final years of WWII, the Wehrmacht really began to feel the short supply of equipment due to the increasingly worsening war situation for Germany. Among all this, the Wehrmacht experienced a particular lack of self-propelled anti-tank vehicles as the Allies began pushing German troops back to their homeland. As a result, the order for the urgent conversion of the Sd.Kfz.251 half-tracks into tank destroyers armed with the 7,5 cm PaK 40 cannons was issued in late 1944.
After minor modifications were made, the first prototype of the Sd.kfz.251/22 was built in December 1944 while mass production began only a short while later. By March 1945 well over 200 units were produced. However, production was cut short due to the rapid advance of the Red Army in 1945. In service, the Sd.Kfz.251/22 although proving somewhat effective, suffered greatly from its excessive weight leading to frequent suspension breakdowns. Nonetheless, the Sd.Kfz 251/22 served on until the war’s end whilst captured versions continued theri service with Yugoslav forces well into the 1950s!
The Sd.Kfz.251/22 will be one of the main prizes awaiting participants of the New season of Battle Pass “Fearless Voltigeur”, soon starting in War Thunder.
Based on the chassis of the familiar German half-track already known to some tankers in the game, the Sd.Kfz.251/22 offers its aspiring commanders much more substantial levels of firepower thanks to its larger high velocity cannon!
Armed with the 7,5 cm PaK 40 cannon tankers may already be familiar with from other German tank destroyers such as the ‘Pakwagen’, the Sd.kfz.251/22 is ideally equipped to deal with most other hostile armor it may encounter on the battlefield! However, the vehicle’s relatively high combat mass combined with only light protection make it an easy target for both aircraft as well as commanders of lighter, and thus more mobile vehicles. As a result, the Sd.Kfz.251/22 is a true glass cannon - potentially highly effective in the hands of a skilled tanker, but also easily taken out by cunning opponents!
Be sure to add the unique Sd.Kfz.251/22 to your in-game collection by taking part in the upcoming new season of the War Thunder Battle Pass. Good hunting tankers!

Another pakwagon for biasland
Awesome!
Vehicle yes, Battle Pass no (could use a break)
Sabretooth_OPS, Then go teak a break idiot
Off topic but skink when?
Most important thing is: Will you put nice tasks ? Will you return good boosters ? If not im not joining again
I really hope you can get this one for free, I love all the crazy versions of the Sd.Kfz. 251 versions!
Please add Sim Ground to do all kind of tasks... I'm already WT addict, you got me; but please let me enjoy that at least...
Obviously, the best armed variant is going to be locked behind a paywall. Even if it is going to be the "free" reward of BP, it is still paywall due to the time limitation to progress in BP
Brilliant idea, lock a heavily requested vehicle behind a season pass paywall. Probably to add more salt to the wound it can't be traded on the market.
Figures its a battle pass vehicle well guess I'm not getting it shame was looking forward to it good job gaijin ya lowsed that up.
