Two Models

The 3.7cm PaK 36 was the German’s standard anti-tank weapon at the outbreak of war in 1939. Over 15,000 PaK 36s had been manufactured by 1941. It proved to be an excellent weapon during the early years of the war until the introduction of well-armoured tanks such as the T-34 rendered it obsolete. This didn’t halt its career; it remained an important secondary weapon.
The introduction of the Stielgranate round in 1942 gave it quite a punch at short range. It could penetrate 180mm at 100m, but required nerves of steel from the crew, "shooting with the Stielgranate required more nerves than tank close combat" (official report from the 1st Infantry division).

In Flames of War

The mighty Panzers can't be everywhere at once, therefore the infantry must rely on anti-tank guns to protect them against marauding enemy tanks.
