For historical information, Wikipedia has an article on Hummel (vehicle).

Hummel (Sd.Kfz. 165) is a German self-propelled artillery.

Description[]

Armed with a 15 cm sFH 18 L/30 artillery gun on a modified Panzer IV chassis, the powerful Hummel provides mobile heavy artillery support for the tank forces. There is also a MG 34 available for self-defense against enemy infantry. It has an open topped fighting compartment, which makes the crew vulnerable to small arms fire, hand grenades and splinters. To avoid this, the Hummel should not be used in the front line.

It can be found in scenarios set in the summer of 1943 and thereafter, such as 4307-Prokhorovka and 4504-Black Forest.

Trivia[]

The Hummel was first showcased and included in FINAL Release Candidate 1, but re-showcased for the second time in FINAL Release Candidate 4.
