The Grille 15 is a German tier 10 tank destroyer.

In the summer of 1942, Waffenamt (the German Army Weapon Agency) concluded an agreement with the Krupp and Rheinmetall companies for designing a tank destroyer on the chassis of the Panther tank. It was planned to mount either the 128-mm K 43 gun or the 150-mm sFH 43 howitzer. The projects were designated Grille 12 and Grille 15, featured rear placement of the fighting compartment, and differed only in the artillery system type. Later, the Grille 15 received a 150-mm gun with a length of 63 calibers, which could penetrate 200 mm of armor at 4,000 meters. However, development was slow, and the Grille 15 remained only in blueprints.

The final development of its tank destroyer tech tree, the Grille 15 is a far more reasonable conclusion to its respective branch's play-style than the enormous, hulking, DPM burst-damage monster known as the Waffenträger auf E 100, which the Grille 15 replaced as the Tier X tank destroyer. Upon entering the fray, the Grille 15 was unsurprisingly met with a polarizing reaction from the community. Some players praised the new vehicle's dynamics and characteristics as much more familiar to what they were accustomed to with the previous vehicles of the branch. Others were simply relieved that they would no longer have to face the overwhelming, unbalanced firepower of the WT auf E100 on the battlefield. And the rest cried out in disappointment, having lost their team-slaying behemoth TD and received a much weaker, albeit much more sensible, vehicle in return. To makes things worse, the Grille 15 was nerfed in update 9.17.1, making the vehicle no-where as competitive as the WT auf E100 once was.

In it's current state, the Grille 15 is now a Tier X tank destroyer with its own unique set of skills. The first aspect of the Grille 15 is the extremely long-barreled 15cm gun for which the vehicle is named. It is an accurate and fast aiming gun in the game and on top of that, it fires highly damaging AP shells with high velocity. This makes the Grille 15 a good sniper tank in the game. However, the good accuracy and aiming time is negated by the dispersion values of the tank. One can expect to have a great bloom of the aim circle when moving the turret, which adds 3-4 extra seconds to the aimtime. When shooting with multiple tanks on a single target, the Grille 15 usually fires last for the need to fully aim, or otherwise has a big chance to miss. With respect to mobility, this tank can reach very high speeds for a tank destroyer, however it takes quite a while to get to that speed.

The armor of the Grille 15 is almost nonexistent. As the tank is slow on turning and thus reversing behind cover, this tank will almost certainly not survive long once it draws the enemy attention and comes under heavy fire. Play this tank as a concealed sniper or as a fire support vehicle to heavily armored teammates who can protect your tank.

The Grille 15 marks the end of its German tank destroyer line.
