The development of the Panzerkampfwagen III medium tank began in the mid-1930s, with the intention of making it the backbone of the Wehrmacht's armored units. It was a protagonist of the Blitzkrieg and the early stages of the Second World War. Over time, in its various versions built, it adopted a more effective main armament. From the 37 mm of the first production series, it was equipped with guns with a caliber that reached up to 75 mm and which allowed it to counter superior armored vehicles. During the war, it was also improved in armor and often adopted additional protection to increase its resistance in battle. However, starting in 1943, the technological gap compared to enemy tanks caused the Panzer III to gradually be replaced with more modern and heavily armed vehicles.
