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!

Cool, I'll be excited to get it, just please, stop with so many naval battlepass tasks, I don't want to play naval to progress in the battlepass
oh wow, a new vehicle im not going to play because the game is so unplayable that i fear for my mental health whenever i play it
nice moar WW2 please!!!!!
Please remove timegate from battlepass challenges, all they do is increase fear of missing out and pull back on your progress.
what level will this vehicle be??? please tell me this one is the level 14 one
Someone tell Gajin that the space next to the Sturmgeschütz tech tree is not a light tank tech tree but ment for premiums.
Can we have some more things in game for the UK with the early cold war "Rainbow" naming scheme? I'm talking the Blue Cedar, Blue Dolphin missiles for the Dehavilland Sea Vixen; Blue Vixen pulse doppler radar for the Sea Harrier F.A.2 (Soon). And many more i found on the allmighty wikipedia.
i better expect a better aircraft rather than that P-39 french edition
Well this was a plesant surprise, i was half expecting this beast of the snub track to be in the summer event, going to be nice adding this to my collection 0-0
If the free vehicle is going to be another plane, it better be a very unique one and just not another copy pasted vehicle in a different tech tree like the P-39 was
