The Sd. Kfz (abbreviation for the German word Sonderkraftfahrzeug that means special motor vehicle) 250/1 was a reconnaissance and transport vehicle mainly used by scouts and HQ units.
The vehicle was a shortened version of the Sd Kfz 251 Hanomag and came in many variants fulfilling many different roles like cable carriers; ammunition carriers and radio carriers. It carried six men including the driver and the co-driver and was armed with a pintle-mounted MG34 machine gun.
Our model represents the “Neu” version of the vehicle that was in use from 1943 onwards in most theatres; however the model can also be used to represent the earlier version in operation since 1941; as it was not too different.
