I believe the SDKfz 251/4 was used to tow the Pak 40. Also , I cannot remember where I saw it but I recall a photo of a SdKfz 11 towing it .   Keep On Modelin!    milvehfan

SdKfz 11
Opel Blitz
Steyr RSO
Steyr 1500A Kfz 69
SdKfz 251/4 or mounted in the SdKfz 251/22

A photo in a book I read shows a captured French Chenilette being used by the German army in 1941 on the Eastern front, the caption reads:
"Panzerjaeger crews June 1941. Due to a shortage of heavy equipment captured French
Chenilette prime movers were used to tow antitank guns". Was wondering if this vehicle would be strong enough to pull a pak40?
