            The Einheitsanhänger E 3 3t, offen (o) - standard trailer E 3, 3 tons, open (commercial) - was introduced around 1940 to replace the many commercial trailers of this payload class by a single model..

            The Einheitsanhänger E 3 had a simple construction and was manufactured by several manufacturers. In the two upper photos, one can see the early model of this trailer which can be identified by the mudguards.

            Later in the war, all expendable parts were omitted for reasons of manufacturing simplification. In the lower photo, one can see such a simplified model without mudguards. The photo was made in Jerne, Denmark, on 23rd December 1944.
