The Panzer IV was originally intended to be used only on a limited scale, so initially Krupp was its sole manufacturer. Prior to the Polish campaign, only 217 Panzer IVs had been produced: 35 Ausf. A; 42 Ausf. B; and 140 Ausf. C; in 1941, production was extended to Vogtländische Maschinenfabrik ("VOMAG") (located in the city of Plauen) and the Nibelungenwerk in the Austrian city of St. Valentin.

The Land-Wasser-Schlepper (LWS) was an unarmed amphibious tractor designed and manufactured in Germany during World War II. It was intended to assist German Army engineers with river crossings, bridging operations, and especially for potential amphibious landings, such as the planned invasion of Britain (Operation Sea Lion).

The Panzer I Ausf. F, was as different from the Ausf. C as it was from the Ausf. A and B.[28] Intended as an infantry support tank, the Panzer I Ausf. F had a maximum armor thickness of 80 millimeters (3.15 in) and weighed between 18 and 21 tonnes.[29] The Ausf. F was armed with two 7.92 mm MG-34s.[30] Thirty were produced in 1940, and a second order of 100 was later canceled. In order to compensate for the increased weight, a new 150 horsepower (110 kW) Maybach HL45 Otto engine was used, allowing a maximum road speed of 25 kilometers per hour (15.5 mph) and used five overlapping road wheels per side, dropping the Ausf. C's interleaved units.

The SU-18 SPH is a Soviet self-propelled gun that was based on the T-18 chassis and used a 76.2-mm regimental gun model 1927. The design was based on a captured French Renault FT-17BS, but it replaced the turret with a truncated pyramid shape. The SU-18 had an ammunition capacity of 4-6 rounds and was known for its relatively slow speed and short range.
