- For the Steel Division II unit see SD2:U304(f)
U304 is a German Transport unit exclusively used by the 21. Panzer, used to transport infantry. U304s were French halftracks pressed into service by Germany, which by then was facing a serious shortage of vehicles.
Overview[ | ]
Due to deficiencies in industrial capacity, Germany was forced to press captured enemy materiel and vehicles into service, from cars to tanks. The U304(f) was a Unic P107 half-track converted by Major Alfred Becker for German use. The conversion was compatible with a number of weapon systems and could be tailored for a variety of purposes.
21. Panzer's two Panzergrenadier Regiments had both one Armored Panzergrenadier Battalion mounted in U304(f).
Strategy[ | ]
Most German infantry in the 21. Panzer arrive with the light armoured personnel carrier, the U304. It can provide light firepower against enemy infantry with its machine gun. Its stats are in all respects similar to the American M3 Halftrack.
