The StG44 (Sturmgewehr 44 or "Assault rifle model 1944") was an assault rifle developed in Nazi Germany during World War II and was the first of its kind to see major deployment. It is also known under the designations MP43 and MP44 (Maschinenpistole 43, Maschinenpistole 44 respectively), which denotes earlier development versions of the same weapon.

- MP43, MP44, and StG44 were different designations for what was essentially the same rifle, with minor updates in production. The variety in nomenclatures resulted from the complicated bureaucracy in Nazi Germany. Developed from the Mkb 42(H) "Machine Carbine", the StG44 combined the characteristics of a carbine, Sub-Machine Gun and Automatic Rifle. StG is an abbreviation of Sturmgewehr, which meant 'Assault Rifle' in German. The name was chosen for propaganda reasons and literally means Storm Rifle as in "to storm an enemy position" (i.e. "Assault", leading to the modern terminology "Assault Rifle"). After the adoption of the StG44, the English translation "Assault Rifle" became the accepted designation for this type of infantry small arm.

| - MP43, MP44, and StG44 were different designations for what was essentially the same rifle, with minor updates in production. The variety in nomenclatures resulted from the complicated bureaucracy in Nazi Germany. Developed from the Mkb 42(H) "Machine Carbine", the StG44 combined the characteristics of a carbine, Sub-Machine Gun and Automatic Rifle. StG is an abbreviation of Sturmgewehr, which meant 'Assault Rifle' in German. The name was chosen for propaganda reasons and literally means Storm Rifle as in "to storm an enemy position" (i.e. "Assault", leading to the modern terminology "Assault Rifle"). After the adoption of the StG44, the English translation "Assault Rifle" became the accepted designation for this type of infantry small arm. The rifle was chambered for the 7.92x33mm Kurz cartridge, also known as 7.92 mm Kurz (German for "short"). This shorter version of the German standard (7.92x57mm Mauser) rifle round, in combination with the weapon's selective-fire design, provided a compromise between the controllable firepower of a submachine gun at close quarters with the accuracy and power of a Karabiner 98k bolt action rifle at intermediate ranges. While the StG44 had less range and power than the more powerful infantry rifles of the day, Wehrmacht studies had shown that most combat engagements occurred at less than 300 m with the majority within 200 m.
