Response to Maybe a 1 ton...

was the SdKfz 11 3-ton halftrack tractor, which also towed the 2cm Flakvierling 38. Note that later in the war, with production unable to keep up with losses, alternate vehicles were often used, i.e., the Steyr 1500A was used to tow the 7.5cm Pak 40. On roads, many lighter vehicles could tow loads normally towed by the heavier halftracks. In an emergency, you use what you have.
