Hi all,
Was the le IG 18 ever officially mounted on vehicles, as a weapon, like the short 75mm on the half-track?

One of the Recce Battalions in the DAK certainly mounted the le IG 18 on at least one SdKfz 250 and if you do a search on the Allied Vehicles in German Service thread on here and you'll find photographs of a British Morris 15cwt truck with the entire gun, minus its wheels, mounted behind the driver.
