- In the end, the total number of cars produced reached 700 cars.
- The Panzer IV, which was originally scheduled to be equipped with this main gun, ended up being equipped with a long-barreled KwK40, and as a result it was equipped with a surplus 7.5cm KwK37L/24 gun.
- This was installed on the III-J type, L type, and M type.
- The N type, which was the final production type of the Panzer III that was born, was effective in anti-tank warfare as well as fire support.
- It was also deployed to the heavy tank battalion to compensate for the lack of Tiger tanks, and the N type deployed to the 501st heavy tank battalion was active on the Tunisian front in Africa.
