Why did the Germans build some tanks without the hull mg?
I've posted this on a couple of boards seeking some answers! Why would they leave the hull machine gun off the Panther D? Did they think they wouldn't need it? Why did they leave them off the Ferdinand? With every other tank they'd built before, why did they go against tradition and delete them from those two? I know the Panther A and the Elefant corrected that ommission, but not before a few would have been lost by tank-hunting crews, especially the Ferdinands. Seems pretty silly to me - any clues behind the thinking?
