Hello punkyto,

this is not the cupola of a Panzer II. This is a Stug III G cupola. And the tank is a Panzerbeobachtungswagen IV. These observation tanks were converted from normal Panzer IV for artillery units beginning in July 1944. About 124 vehicles were converted. Photos are indeed rare.

Regards, Holger.

Thanks for posting such a great picture of the Pz.Beob.Wg IV - I think it is the first time we really saw the top of the turret. In Spielberger's book Begleitwagen Panzerkampwagen IV there are multiview drawings from Hilary Doyle of this vehicle.
