Ammunition schlepper Pz.Kpfw. IV is a German tracked ammunition truck from the Second World War. The first prototypes of the car were built in 1939, but small-scale production probably began in 1941. It is assumed that the length of the car was 5.92 meters, with a width of 2.98 meters. The weight of the car was probably about 24.5 tons. The machine did not have permanent armament. Ammunition schlepper Pz.Kpfw. The IV is designed as a highly specialized ammunition transport vehicle designed to service the Karl Gerät 040/041 self-propelled mortars. Its design was based on the Pz.Kpfw. IV Ausf. D and F1. Compared to its prototype, the presented machine had a revised front part of the fuselage and the turret with the main armament was removed from it. On the other hand, in the back of the car, in the engine compartment, there was a container in which 3 to 4600-mm rounds of the "Karl" mortar were transported. The machine is also equipped with a special crane designed to transport these cartridges. It can be assumed that a total of about 15 machines of this type, including prototypes, were built.
