The PAK38 was developed for the German military in 1938 to replace the PAK 36. The PAK 38 was a German anit-tank gun featuring a 50mm gun capable of penetrating the 45mm armor of the T-34 Soviet tank. The PAK 38 was introduced to the German military in 1940 and saw its first combat in 1941 in the Western front during Operation Barbarossa (The war effort versus the Soviets by the German army). The PAK 38 was replaced by the PAK40 which featured a 75mm gun, but the PAK 38 was used by the German military till the end of the war in 1945. The PAK 38 used an armour-piercing, composite rigid ammunition with a tungsten core, known as Panzergranate 40, in order to penetrate the armor of heavier tanks.
