The FHH brigade's two Panzersturmkompanien (armoured assault companies) were a new concept when first formed. They merge the assault firepower of the StG44 assault rifle with the mobility and long-ranged firepower of the Sd Kfz 251 half-track. The result is ideal for an aggressive assault role. The half-tracks get the troops close, then cover them as they dismount and assault. As they are also equipped with Panzerfaust anti-tank launchers, the Sturm platoons are capable of taking on almost any threat.
The ability to conduct effective offensive operations at night has long been recognized as a tactical advantage. However, until the 20th Century, there had been no effective way to permit people to retain anything approaching their daylight levels of visual acuity during night-time operations. New technological developments including cathode ray tubes and oscillators meant that by the 1930s night vision devices had entered the realm of feasibility.
Infra-red equipment allows troops to see further at night, using a spectrum of light not seen with the naked eye. This equipment allowed panzers to launch local spoiling attacks at night in conjunction with infra-red ZG 1229 Vampir (Vampire) equipped infantry.
