The Waffenträger auf Pz. IV is a German tier 9 tank destroyer.
Tank destroyer developed in February 1944 on the basis of the PzIV tank. Development was discontinued in favor of a similar vehicle on the basis of the Krupp Waffentrager 12.8 cm PaK 44 of Czech origin. Existed only in blueprints.
The Waffenträger auf Pz. IV is a very similar machine to the Rhm.-Borsig Waffenträger. It has excellent camouflage, guns, and a turret, while having absolutely no armor. It also has much better acceleration than the Rhm.-Borsig, allowing it to get into position faster. Its two top guns are upgraded versions of the Rhm.-Borsig's guns, with even more penetration and damage, as well as better accuracy. As on the Rhm.-Borsig, the 128 mm gun has excellent penetration and accuracy, as well as good damage, while the 15 cm gun has exceptionally high damage at the cost of penetration, accuracy, and rate of fire.
The Waffenträger auf Pz. IV leads to the Grille 15.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Small profile
- High penetration with the 12.8cm L/61 gun
- All of its available guns are Tier 10s with high damage and decent penetration, and (exept 12.8cm L/61 gun) all of its guns doesn't need new treads to support its weight
- As its modules are carried over it doesn't require a stock grind
- Very high camouflage value
Cons:
- Almost no armor; Very vulnerable against HE shells
- Weak engine in the front (like the Rhm)
- Terrible view range for tier 9
- Awkward gun depression; best depression when gun is turned to the back
- Odd gun elevation, extremely high towards the front, almost none when turned to the back
Performance
The Waffenträger auf Pz. IV can be good training for the tier 10 Grille 15, as this tank has a similar rear-mounted turret. This fact means that both tank destroyers severely lack gun depression. Many players will drive the Waffentrager auf Pz. IV in reverse to allow for minimal exposure and full use of its 5 degrees of workable gun depression.
