Zvezda 6157 1/100 SdKfz.222 Armoured Car
German Sd. Kfz 222 Armoured Car
1/100 Scale Model Kit also suitable for use with the Art of Tactic
This kit includes one plastic model German armoured vehicle.
Model supplied unpainted. Assembly required. This "snap fit" model can be assembled without glue.
Includes unit flag and unit card for use with the Art of Tactic WWII game.
Historical Notes
The German military built nearly 1000 of the light armoured reconnaissance vehicle Sk. Kfz. 222. The vehicle??s 80 kilometre per hour road top speed and 40 kilometre per hour cross country top speed made it a valuable compliment for panzer units that needed a reliable recon vehicle. It performed excellently in countries with good roads, like Western Europe, but struggled in the Eastern Front and North Africa because of its poor off-road performance.
Based on a typical heavy off-road truck, the Sk. Kfz. 222 was equipped with 5 to 8 mm of armour plate and a turret-mounted 20mm KwK 30 L/55 autocannon and a 7.92 mm machine gun. Though it would eventually be replaced by more rugged half-tracks for the recon role, it did impress the Soviet??s enough to inspire their own BA-64 armoured car.
