152 mm ShH vz.18/47 in the Czechoslovak army
At an inspection of the captured equipment by representatives of the artillery units, AZ 1 and Skoda Works in Milovice on 4 December 1948, it was stated that it was possible to repair 15 of the 17 available Hummel self-propelled guns. Later in 1/1949 it was decided to reconstruct only 12 vehicles. The gun itself was modified for the use of Soviet unified ammunition of 152.4 mm calibre. The barrels were fitted with muzzle brakes. During practice firings, these stretch brakes were found to cause a strong pressure and acoustic wave, so it was ordered that operators should protect their hearing with earplugs and their eyesight with motorcycle goggles. The designation of such a modified vehicle was 152 mm ShH vz.18/47, later as SD-152.
All self-propelled guns were ready for acceptance by 3/1950, but two vehicles were not accepted due to technical problems. One of them was accepted in 4/1950, the other only in 6/1950. All vehicles were transferred to the 52nd Artillery Regiment at Bruntal. On 6/12/1950 all vehicles were transferred to the newly formed 1st TTSP.
In 1953 all these self-propelled guns were incorporated into the armament of 8th Fortress Brigade. Three pieces of this vehicle were to be in the armament of 1st Battalion, 2nd Battalion. prápor[/url], 3.prápor a 4. prápor 8. pevnostnej brigády.
These machines were soon unserviceable due to poor crew training, and in 1954 they were sent again to the Strashik 1st Heavy Tank-Mobile Regiment. However, they were soon scrapped, used as a source of spare parts for T-40/75 and SD-75/40, and the remainder were subsequently disposed of. By 1955, these machines no longer appear in the equipment list of the parent units. One SD-152 self-propelled gun, however, served for a time as a teaching aid at the Military Technical Academy A. Zápotocký.


These machines were probably sent from these units to the brigade artillery school in Nové Sirovice in 1953/54.

The 152mm self-propelled howitzer vz.18/47 ( 152 mm ShH vz.18/47) was designed to support tanks and mechanized units in offensive combat, as well as to destroy enemy anti-tank artillery and enemy defensive objects. If necessary, self-propelled howitzers operating in a second-sequence formation could be used to fire from concealed firing positions. Defensively, self-propelled howitzers were to be used to reinforce the anti-tank defenses of tank units and mechanized units and formations.

Original Wehrmacht designation: 15 cm Pz.Haubitze auf.GW III/IV Sd. Kfz. 165 Hummel

Designations in the Czechoslovak Army :


1948-1949 - 152 mm self-propelled howitzer "Hummel",
1949-1954 - 152 mm self-propelled howitzer vz.18/47

Year of introduction into the armament of the Czechoslovak army : 1949

Number of repaired vehicles : 12 pcs

Year of withdrawal from the armament of the Czechoslovak army. Army : 1956
Type: heavy self-propelled howitzer on tracked chassis

Company providing the repair : ČKD Praha - Libeň

After the end of the war, the commission of the commander of the tank army of the Czechoslovak army took over the repair of the 1956
tank army of the Czechoslovak army. The commission of the Czech Army Armoured Corps Commission inspected in the premises of the former SS training camp in Vrchotovské Janovice, among other trophy equipment, the Hummel self-propelled howitzer, which after multiple combat damage served only as a training aid. At the suggestion of the commission, the commander of the tank army offered it first to the Military Technical Institute and later to the military school. Because none of these entities showed interest in it, it was scrapped in the autumn of 1945. A further 12 Hummel machines were acquired between 1946 and 1947 as part of the collection of German trophy material from the field. Although their repair was not envisaged by the Tank Command (TMV), they were all relegated to the AZ1 branch of the Milovice tank material depot. A shortage of heavy tanks and self-propelled howitzers led the tank commander to decide in early 1948 to introduce Hummel self-propelled howitzers into the armament of the tank army. Their overhaul began in the spring of 1948 at the ČKD Praha - Libeň plant. At the end of June 1948, the technical commission took over the first repaired vehicle with the adapted 152 mm howitzer vz. 18/47. In August-October 1948, extensive driving and shooting tests were carried out with it. After these were completed, the Hummel underwent a medium overhaul and in November 1948 was stored with Delostrelecky-pluk-1-1947-1951. Meanwhile, in the same period of time, the dismantling of the remaining Hummel machines is taking place at the ČKD Praha - Libeň plant. Work on the overhaul of these vehicles began in January 1949, immediately after the Škoda Plzeň plants had repaired them, supplying their artillery armament. Already in the middle of May 1949, after successful firing tests in VVT Jínce, the technical commission of the tank army took over four self-propelled howitzers under the designation 152mm ShH vz. 18/47, which were stored again in the draws of Artillery Regiment 1.

In what timeframe the overhaul of the remaining 7 howitzers took place is unknown. What is certain is that by November 1949 all 12 pieces of ShH vz. 18/47 were stored in the premises of the 11th Tank Brigade in Dedice, which belonged to the subordination of the Tank Corps.

They were only removed from storage in December 1950 after the formation of the 1st Heavy Tank Regiment in Strasice. They formed part of the armament of the 2nd Heavy Self-Propelled Gun Battalion. Their withdrawal from the armament of TMV combat units and subsequent decommissioning occurred in late 1954, as confirmed by the TMV commander's report "on the state of military equipment" dated 15 March 1955.

From the decommissioned self-propelled howitzers vz. 18/47 was stored 1 piece at the tank base Dědice for the needs of VTA - AZ Brno and design departments of armament factories.
The remaining pieces were scrapped after extraction of spare parts for tanks T-40/75 and SD 75/40N.

Hummel in the Syrian Army
The photo is from a parade in Damascus in the 1950s. Sources say there were five Hummel self-propelled guns in the Syrian army's arsenal.
The deliveries of the Hummels must have taken place before 1955, when a request for the delivery of these guns was also made to the Czechoslovak military authorities. I assume that their eminent interest in those self-propelled guns was based on their personal experience. It is likely that they could have been delivered with the French tanks Pz.Kpfw. IV.
The request to supply Humvees from Czechoslovakia was even made twice. The answer to the first request in 1955 was negative, due to the fact that these vehicles were already scrapped and scrapped from the Czechoslovak army at that time. In the second request (year ?), the Main Technical Administration tried to obtain these vehicles from other communist countries, but was equally unsuccessful.
To protect against both infantry and aircraft, Italian heavy machine guns of Breda-Safat calibre 12.7 mm were fielded. These machine guns were probably used from the cancelled Italian aircraft.

Hummel in the Romanian Army
The occurrence of this self-propelled gun in the armament of the post-war Romanian army is photographically documented. The photo comes from 10.5.1946 from a show in Bucharest. Romanian sources state that the howitzer did not have a lock and was unusable. It was probably a unique self-propelled vehicle and others were not available. The machine in the photo bore the registration number "U069009" and belonged to the Regimentul 2 Care de Lupta.

Zdravím všechny humlomily! Pánové, narazil jsem na něco, čemuž nedokážu přiřadit použití: Jak jistě všichni víte ( z obrázků je to zřejmé), vozily s sebou Hummely na zadní části korby pode dveřmi 3 červenobílé tyče. ( možná jich bylo víc?), odhadem velikosti 2,5 m, se špičatými konci, na jednom konci jsou tyče (asi půl metru) zúžené. Na jedné fotografii z muzea (?) je nad těmito tyčemi nápis: "RICHTSTANGEN"
Tento výraz v překladu, by měl znamenat nejspíš "Mířící, nebo zaměřovací tyče". Nejsem však dělostřelec a nedokážu si představit, jak byly tyto tyče používány. Hodlám totiž postavit diorama s Hummelem ( DRAGON - moc pěkný model!!!- Doporučuji!) a npadlo mně, těmi tyčemi diorama oživit, leč právě neznám jejich použití.
Prosím proto všechny, kdo by věděl, zda by mi mohl poskytnout nějaké informace. Děkuji předem a přeji mnoho zdaru! Káca

To Káča : Neviem načo presne slúžia tie tyče,môžem len hádať,že slúžia na trianguláciu-priame meranie v teréne a v tejto súvislosti to má niečo spoločné s delostreleckým navádzaním.(???)Pozri si foto hummell-07.Tam vidno nejaké tie tyče...
