Specifically, the mismatch in crew values caused by commander's 10% crew skill bonus. Outside of a crew of 1 commander only, 100% crew is a fiction. The client values, given for 100% crew, will normally be taken into battle with 110% crew skill members aside from specific functions, causing their actual performance to deviate from the expected client value. These differences are taken into account in tooltip boxes.

Player Opinion

Pros and Cons

Pros:


  • Good rate of fire, great accuracy for its tier and amazing aim time for any tank above tier 4.
  • Excellent ammunition capacity (61 rounds compared to 44 rounds on StuG III Ausf. G.
  • Comes with 100% a crew.
  • Side skirts cover most of the side.
  • Will never see any tank above tier VI.


Cons:


  • Below average view range, even for a T.D.
  • Rather low mobility with low speed limits and a weak engine.
  • Mediocre firepower, with poor alpha damage and terrible penetration for a T.D.
  • Overall inferior to StuG III Ausf. G in most aspects.
  • Being a reward tank, the StuG IV does not have increased credit income.


Performance

The Stug IV is a "Jack of all trades" machine. There is not one area it specifically excels at and is a good, all around fun tank to play. The 7,5 cm Stu.K. 40 L/48 gun is rapid firing with excellent aim time characteristics. Although it only has 110mm of penetration with regular ammunition and 158mm with premium ammunition this will still suffice in higher tier games with sufficient weak spot knowledge. This gun is particulary good at tearing up lightly armored machines with its blistering rate of fire (3.55 seconds with 100% crew). Its accuracy of 0.35/100m allows it to snipe at weak spots reliably at range, which helps the low penetration a bit. A depression value of -6° means this tank can make use of small bumps in terrain which, coupled with its low profile, makes it a dangerous machine on uneven ground.

View range is quite poor at 310m but binoculars will boost this to an acceptable 380m, allowing the Stug IV to spot some of its own targets. The tank comes with its own 100% crew, but it is always a good idea to use this tank to train up other tank destroyer crews. The 360HP of this tank is quite underwhelming and hits from H.E. shells will remove quite a large proportion of these hit points. The traverse of 44 degrees/second makes this tank very hard to outflank in lower tier light/medium tanks and the Stug IV can (in the right hands and circumstances) do quite well for itself in close quarters. It is recommended though to stay at longer ranges to make use of the decent camouflage values.

Historical Info

The Sturmgeschütz IV (StuG IV) (Sd.Kfz. 167), was a German assault gun variant of the Panzer IV used in the latter part of the Second World War. It was identical in role and concept to the highly successful StuG III assault gun variant of the Panzer III. Both StuG models were given an exclusively tank destroyer role in German formations and tactical planning in the last two years of the war, greatly augmenting the capability of the dwindling tank force available to the German army on the Eastern and Western fronts.


The Sturmgeschütz IV resulted from Krupp's effort to supply an assault gun. As Krupp did not build Panzerkampfwagen IIIs, they used the Panzerkampfwagen IV chassis in combination with a slightly modified Sturmgeschütz III superstructure.

From December 1943 to May 1945, Krupp built 1,108 StuG IVs and converted an additional 31 from battle-damaged Panzer IV hulls. While the number is smaller than the 10,000+ StuG III, the StuG IV supplemented and fought along with StuG III during 1944–45, when they were most needed.
