I see, very interesting. Thanks very much for this detailed reply. If I might dig around a bit further?
Do you think it might be possible that the 250 and 251 half tracks had face hardened armour? after all the plate thicknesses were the same as the armoured cars. Also Im surprised the early panzer III's wernt face hardened, being the MBT and all.
Ive also heard mention that panzer 1 is face hardened and I would speculate the pz 2 may have been as well?

disagrees slightly as it mentions that pz 4 had face
hardened side turret armour? (f1 onwards)
I would indeed be keen to have a look at the references as well if thats possible.

Thanks in advance Chuck.
