For Pz.Sfl.Ia 5cm Pak 38 on gp.Mun.Schlepper.After the victory in the west, on July 5, 1940 the In 6 commissioned Wa Prüf to develop a light tank destroyer. This should be intended for the airborne troops and the non-motorized infantry divisions. WaPrüf has commissioned Rheinmetall-Borsig to develop the 5 cm Pak 38 L / 60 on the chassis of the ammunition tractor from Borgward.
