Advantages:

Excellent maneauverability and acceleration
Powerful 105mm howitzer with good damage potential and decent handling, remains competitive even in tier 6 matches
Low profile with good camouflage rating, also has 310m view range(though not terrific), far better than the Hetzer''s 260m
50mm thick frontal armor for its tier, can still be effective against autocannons or some tier 3 guns
Many modules compatible with the Stug III

Disadvantages:

Poor-Average gun depression
Although it''s the same gun as on the Hetzer, many soft stats of the 10.5 cm (RoF, accuracy and aim time) are inferior
If coming from the Marder 38t, the stock grind will be horrific
Gun traverse arc is not as good as the Marder 38t
Low HP for a tier 4 TD
