During WWII, German armored divisions effectively used Hanomag
half-track armored carriers in transport and support roles. Among the
many variations was the Sd.Kfz. 251/1 Ausf.D which first appeared in
1943 and is now faithfully depicted as a plastic assembly model kit. The
features of the distinctively styled Ausf.D which includes the open top
cabin, seats, and wireless radio have been realistically reproduced in
great detail. The rear gate can also be depicted in either open or
closed position. Included with the Ausf.D are 4 figures in dynamic poses
such as the driver looking back from the driver's seat as well as the
commander showing the direction of the enemy. In addition, weapons such
as a Panzerfaust and MG42 machine gun are included with the kit for
added realism.
