Late WWII German Uniform & Equipment In the second half of WWII, German troops' M43 uniforms were rather simplified and in a different material to early war designs (largely as a cost-saving measure), although some soldiers still used their older gear, or even wore their Zeltbahn shelters as a makeshift poncho. Meanwhile weaponry had advanced since the start of the conflict, and German troops often toted the G.43 semi-automatic rifle, the MP44 sub-machine gun, and the Panzerfaust anti-tank weapon.
