About the Real Tank
- During the early stages of World War II, the German Army's Type III tank was one of the main battle tanks used in their blitzkrieg campaigns.
- In this context, Germany devised Operation Sealion, a plan to invade the British mainland by crossing the English Channel from France.
- The submersible Type III tank was specifically developed for this operation, equipped to navigate underwater up to a depth of about 15 meters using a buoy connected by pipes and a watertight hull.
- The base models included the Type F, G, and H variants of the Type III tank. The F type featured a 3.7cm gun, with over 400 units produced between 1939 and 1940.
- Although Operation Sealion was canceled, these tanks were modified with features like fixed snorkels and served on the Eastern Front, particularly in river crossings.
