Flames of War: Late War: German: Grille 15cm Gun Platoon (GE151)

Includes two resin and metal Grille 15cm Self-propelled Guns and crew, and one Unit card.

Unlike the lighter 7.5cm infantry gun, the 15cm howitzer couldn't be mounted aboard a Sd Kfz 251 half-track, so instead the Germans experimented with using several different out-dated tank chassis. By 1943, the result was the Grille (Cricket) self-propelled 15cm gun. This gave the panzergrenadiers their own high-calibre, mobile guns to shatter enemy strongholds.
