1/35 Sd.Kfz.251/1 Ausf.A, WWII German Armoured Personnel Carrier
ICM 1/35 Sd.Kfz.251/1 Ausf.A is a plastic kit of the earliest version of the German half-track armoured personnel carrier. It has 290 parts and 4 options from 1940–1941. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The Hanomag Sd.Kfz.251 half-track was the Wehrmacht’s main armoured personnel carrier. The Sd.Kfz.251/1 carried motorised infantry, and the same basis produced heavy weapons carriers as well as ambulance, staff and communications vehicles. The carriers served throughout the Second World War in every theatre, with a total of 15,252 built. The first version, the Ausf.A, was produced in 1939–1940.
The ICM kit offers 290 parts; the finished model is 167 mm long and 58 mm high. Four decal options follow two panzer divisions: 1st Panzer Division in France, May 1940; 2nd Panzer Division in Greece, May 1941; and 1st Panzer Division in Russia in July and November 1941.
The early Ausf.A is a good basis for an infantry scene from the Blitzkrieg years; the November option from Russia invites work with mud and the first signs of winter. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
