Sturmpanzerwagen A7V

Though German high command was sceptical about the usefulness of armored vehicles eventually they decided to create their own.

History
Only 20 were ever produced and were a rare sight on the battlefield. Designed to be more a morale and propaganda device then an actual siege engine.

Design
Though possessing an astounding (for the time) 30mm of armor it was constructed out of "soft steel" making it less effective then the 10mm armor on British and French tanks. It also possessed incredible firepower one QF 57mm gun and six maxim machine guns. The A7V was also extremely fast topping off at 15km/h as opposed to the 7km/h of the Renault FT-17 or 3km/h of the Tank Mk I.
