So I’ve just learned Stug 3 G pressumably had rotating coupola, but I can’t find more info about this.
Does somebody know some free to acces sources on this topic?
Wikipedia mentions it but you probably already have read that.
" A rotating cupola with periscopes was added for the Ausf G.'s commander. However, from September 1943, the lack of ball bearings (resulting from USAAF bombing of Schweinfurt) forced cupolas to be welded on. Ball bearings were once again installed from August 1944."

That’s where I found it.
But it soulds a bit like a BS so I’ve been looking for more info. But I can’t find anything.

russian forum of another game mentions “Sturmgeschütze. Entwicklung und Fertigung der sPak” by Walther J. Spielberger as one of the sources for this statement.
EDIT: there is also this website that shows early and late production stugs. www.andreaslarka.net
