The Pak 36 (Panzerabwehrkanone 36), a German anti-tank gun with a 3.7 cm calibre, served as the main anti-tank weapon for Wehrmacht infantry units until mid-1941. It was succeeded by the 5 cm Pak 38 gun. Developed in 1924 by Rheinmetall, it initially was a horse-drawn gun (3.7 cm Pak L/45) that was later modified for motorized transport. Renamed the 3.7 cm Pak 35/36, it replaced the 3.7 Pak L/45 in 1934 and debuted in combat during the Spanish Civil War in 1936. This gun design also served as a basis for various nations' anti-tank guns at the beginning of WWII. Interestingly, the KwK 36 L/45 was the same gun used as the main armament on several tanks, most notably early models of the Panzer III. The Soviets even utilized the PaK 36 carriage design for their 45mm M1937 AT gun.
