The vehicle was powered by Skoda 'T11' petrol powerplant producing 120 HP which could drive the vehicle on roads at up to 22 mph with a range of about 119 miles before refuelling. Its cross country performance was adequate providing a max speed of about 10 mph and a range of about 47 miles.
It was armed with 2 light machine guns. Its main armament consisted of a 3.7cm Pak 37(t) which could penetrate 37 mm of flat plate at 800 metres

Hit probability is based on a static 2 x 2.4 metre panel at 0 degrees(vertical) at the range specified.
The data that has been used to create these records has come from Wikipedia, The Lone Sentry, The Bundes Archive
and numerous books and websites that have provided the detailed information that has not been available anywhere else. The
information we use to calculate the penetration tables, flight times and the hit probability comes from the Gun Calibre,
the Shell Mass(Kg) and the muzzle velocity, plus range reductions to allow for gravity and wind resistance. This calculation
originally came from a pre-war Krupp calculation which has been modified, and seems to fit the actual test results.
