Dragon 6711 1/35 WWII SdKfz.10/4 fur 2cm FlaK30 1940 Production w/Ammo Trailer

This is a plastic model kit, which comes unassembled and unpainted. So glue, model paints and other basic modelling tools are additionally required.

Germany fielded a wide range of halftracks during WWII. The Sd.Kfz.10, one of the lighter types, was conceived as a prime mover for small towed guns such as the 3.7cm PaK 36. Measuring 4.5m long and weighing 4.9 tonnes, this Demag-designed vehicle had a 1-ton payload capacity. Around 14,000 Sd.Kfz.10 halftracks were built from 1938-45. Several specialist vehicles were based on this halftrack design, among them the Sd.Kfz.10/4. This type had a platform on the rear for carrying an antiaircraft 2cm FlaK 30 cannon. The purpose-built platform had fold-down sides and rear for the seven-man crew to serve and traverse the weapon. The Sd.Kfz.10/4 was used by both the Wehrmacht and Luftwaffe, and it commonly pulled a two-wheel trailer containing ammunition.

Dragon has now expanded the family with an Sd.Kfz.10/4 towing the standard ammo trailer. The kit's fully detailed, and even hidden internal components like the engine and gearbox are provided. Upgraded road wheels and Magic Tracks have resulted in a spectacular halftrack/trailer combination. Moreover the kit comes with an array of NEW parts like the loading ramps which can be either assembled for dismounting the gun in the rear or put in front of the vehicle. Besides, it receives new handle on both sides. Designed to hit low-flying Allied aircraft, and with plenty of spare ammo available in the trailer, this vehicle will also be a hit with modelers!
