As the value of the PZ-III series declined, many of them were converted
to an infantry support role. This resulted in the Pz-IIIn series. This tank
had the same armor as the Pz-IIIj but its gun was changed to a short barrelled 
75mm cannon. The gun was only useful in an anti-personnel role. Most of the
tanks in this series were assigned to infantry units. Some were assigned to
Tiger tank battalions as a way to protect them from hostile infantry.
