id more likley say a stugIII/F8
I'd have to say Ausf G.

  • It has a cupola
  • The sides of the superstructure are slightly sloped
  • The roof of the superstructure is raised at the end and squared.
  • The Ausf F/8 still had the rectangular boxes attached to the superstructure that were introduced with the Ausf E
