Die cast metal and plastic replica in 1:32nd scale of the Sd. Kfz. 251/9. The Sd. Kfz. 251 half-track was produced in many variants. The 251/9 Kanonenwagen featured a 75 MM cannon, could carry 52 rounds, and was operated by a crew of 3.
In 1911, the French engineer Adolphe Kégresse converted a number of cars to half-tracks for the Tsar of Russia. The Kégresse track design standardized in 1940 and was widely used for armored personnel carriers, mortar carriers, anti-aircraft guns, anti-tank guns, artillery tractors and armored fighting vehicles, especially by the Germans and Americans. Regular wheels on the front and caterpillar tracks on the back gave this vehicle the cross-country capabilities of a tank and the handling of a wheeled vehicle. The rear compartment of each model was encapsulated with face-hardened armor plate, which provided little protection above the level of the rifleman's individual weapon.© Copyright 2003-2010 The Flying Mule, Inc.
