The German Sd. Kfz 251/22D Halftrack, often referred to as the "Pakwagen," is a notable variant of the widely used Sd. Kfz. 251 armored fighting vehicle series during World War II. This model was specifically adapted to carry a more powerful anti-tank gun, the 7.5 cm PaK 40 L/46, making it one of the most potent self-propelled anti-tank guns used by the German forces.

As the war progressed, the effectiveness of the Sd. Kfz 251/22D in the anti-tank role highlighted the importance of mobile, well-armed units in mechanized warfare. Despite its strengths, the vehicle also faced limitations, including vulnerability to heavier enemy fire and the challenges of maintaining such specialized equipment in the field under combat conditions. Nevertheless, the Sd. Kfz 251/22D remains a significant example of German innovation in armored vehicle design during World War II, reflecting a strategic shift towards combining firepower, armor protection, and mobility to meet the demands of modern warfare.
