The biggest change made to the Ausf H was the addition of extra 30mm armour plates on the hull front and rear and on the superstructure front. This gave the Ausf H 60mm armour that was effectively immune to fire from the main anti-tank guns in use in 1941, but did increase the weight of the tank. To compensate for the extra weight the Ausf H used the 40cm wide tracks first used late in the production of the Ausf G. These wider tracks also required a redesign of the wheels. Stronger torsion bars were added at the same time, as was a new transmission. The Ausf H was used in the Balkans, Russia and North Africa.
