The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' (full name "'''8,8 cm Panzerjägerkanone 43'''") was a German anti-tank gun developed in 1942 by Krupp and Rheinmetall and used during the Second World War. It is similar in outward appearance to its smaller predecessor, the [[7.5 cm PaK 40]]. Rheinmetall, the competing company also designed a similar gun called the 8.8 cm PaK 43/41 (full name "'''8,8 cm Panzerjägerkanone 43/41'''"). The difference between the two is that the Rheinmetall version used a split trail carriage while the Krupp version used a cruciform mount.
