The Panzer IV was the workhorse of the German army during the second world war with many different vehicles built based on it. While many of these were relatively normal some of them are far weirder. Today we will look at 10 of these weird Panzer IV variants and briefly discuss their stories.

I didn't expect the Sturmpanzer IV (Brummbär), because it just really makes sense for WW2 Germany. It's basically the original short 7.5cm-armed StuG III (variants A to E) concept updated to 1943. I honestly think the ultra-low Jagdpanzer IV and especially the absurdly armored and armed Panzer IV/70(V) are weirder because they're a new concept and just really extreme designs.

The modified panzer IV, with a Soviet gun, is still in the "Museum of combat glory", It received a fresh coat of paint, but I would assume that, a restoration wont happen soon, if ever, since the museum is or was way underfunded. Since august of last year the museum has been renovated, and I hope the same happens to the tanks there. If you are interested, next time I'm there, I could ask the workers for more details and the history of this particular tank. 🙂

There isn't much to report on. It was a basic Krupp blueprint proposal submitted in November 1944 which was rejected by WaPruf-6 (automotive design office) a couple months later. The drawing depicted a Panther Scmalturm set on an new larger superstructure mounted onto a Pzkpfw-IV Auf.J chassis. No one ever considered it a viable design to be developed further.

That had some new ones for me in as well, good work Sir. Personally, my favorite Panzer IV variant is the D/H. Starting as an infantry support and ending up with more then double the armor in some places in a combat tank role, some of those tanks really saw the long road of world war II. It may be not a really good tank, more a medicore jack of all trades, but seeing how long it was kept in service and how many upgrade programs the Panzer IV ran through, including it's experimental variants, shows that it had a really versatile base design to work with.

About Brückenleger system, sever prototypes was created under that program of development, starting on a 4A hull, begleitewagen, C, D and E hulls. Almost 3 types get production, some from Krupp was used in french campaign (14 builded), later converted at bergepanzer thanks at his internal crane for deploy the bridge. A Variant bridgelayer for infantry was created using 4 B vehicles, all loosed in combat or for mechanical fails. The rest was converted at bergepanzer. Magirus produced 10 vehicles, with a bridgelayer variant, and was used in Rusian campaign, later was used how jagdpanzer with a pak 38 mounted on, and the rest reconverted into standart pz4 hybrid type.

An interesting episode on wierder Panzer IVs. While it isn't a tank, I'm wondering if you have information on the PAW-600 shell projector (low pressure gun) and if you think it would be worth an episode. I'm not sure but I would imagine it could have fit in the Jagdpanzer 38(t) and possibly a Panzer III variant. It only became available in early '45 but I imagine that if it had been available a year earlier it would have given the allies nightmares.

One thing I find interesting as a long-time model builder is how many of these "Weird Panzer IV Variants" are currently available in conventional, injection molded kit form, (unfortunately, this does not include the first one shown with the hydrostatic drive . . . yet . . . .) A big part of this is that these 'weird' and "one-offs" are still pretty standard "from the waist down," making it more economical for model manufacturers to kit these unusual variants. Back in the day, Monogram Models not only had the Panzer IV, but also the Sturmgeschutz, Sturmpanzer, Panzerjaeger IV, and two Anti-Aircraft versions in their 1/32nd scale Armor Series. Tamiya and Italeri did likewise in 1/35th scale. But until recently, I never imagined that we'd ever see kits of the Dicker Max and Nashorn, (which have been available for some time, now,) much less the 8.8 cm Flak version, the Schmalturm and Landwasserschlepper, and others like the Dieselpunk looking Kugelblitz Anti-Aircraft version. And until just now, I had never heard of the Panzer IV mit 7.5 cm Rückstoßfreie variant. (Now, I just know I have a spare Panzer IV and some .040 Evergreen sheet lying around . . . .) Thanks for posting this. My Like is in the 12Ks.

The pz4 with mk101, 30mm was planned in 1941 (mockep hull is from a 4b recycled), but the proyect was closed. Many people see the mk101 how 103.

@@emanuelmorales83 That sounds like a fantastic job for any modeler! I hope you will consider using your skills and influence to convince a manufacturer to come out with a conventional, injection molded kit of the Panzer IV Hydrostatic Drive shown here in this video. Also, though not a Panzer IV, another intriguing kit would be of the Panzer III ausf N als Schienen-Ketten Fahrzeug SK1, with retractable railroad running gear. I think that both would be popular!

I work for Border model (you can read my name in pz4H, instruction sheet page 2). Work too how advicer in AV Vallejo, and in 2018 released a book about Paper Panzer with AK interactive. In fact, i wrote the rules about differences betwen paper panzer, Panzer 46 and what if categories, in that book. Now about Hydrostat pz4 sadly not have market because only 1 was produced, but exist resin convertions and 3D models, same the pz3H railroad.

I would have listed either the Heuschrecke-10, Minenraumgerate-IV, or 5cm KwK39 L/60 Pzkpfw-IV Ausf.D instead of the Schmalturm Pzkpfw-IV since the latter was simply a Krupp proposal that was never considered for development, while the former three were all built as prototypes.

Schmalturm on Panzer IV would have had reduced armor to only 50mm on the front to reduce the weight increase of the vehicle to only ~1 ton. Other than that, fantastic video as always!

What about the PzKw IV "Munitionsschlepper"? The vehicle that was modified to carry rounds for the Mörser Karl? That would have been a good addition to the list, especially since it was actually produced vs being an imagined vehicle. You did not give me new varients, but I still put a like on it, as I did like it.

Surprised you did’t mention the Ausf K, which never left the drawing board. Redesigned hull for sloped armor.
