That sure is a Pz IV n' not a Pz III. There's so many things that differ between the III n' IV.

They are very similar. I'm learning not to trust captions that go with some of these photos, so to check on this I turned around to my wall shelf. I have a model of the IV sitting on a tow trailer. But for the comparison photo I turned to von Senger's "Panzers", he has not let me down yet.
