About the Vehicle

The Sd.Kfz.251 was a half-track used by the German army during World War II. Designed as an armored personnel carrier based on a 3-ton half-track, it had multiple variants beyond the basic personnel carrier type. One variant, the Sd.Kfz.251/16, was equipped with flamethrowers. It featured two 1.4 cm flamethrowers developed by the Koehbe company, mounted on the upper sides of the combat compartment. The vehicle had two fuel tanks with a total capacity of 700 liters, a spray pump, and an auxiliary engine to operate the pump. It could fire approximately 80 continuous flamethrower bursts lasting around 2 seconds each. The flamethrower gunners wore heat-resistant suits and were equipped with masks and goggles. Nearly 350 units were produced starting in January 1934, and they were effectively used by armored grenadier and armored combat engineering units.

About the Model

This model is a 1/35 scale plastic assembly kit recreating the Sd.Kfz.251/16, an armored personnel carrier with flamethrowers as used by the German army during World War II. The design is based on the simplified D-type of the Sd.Kfz.251 series. The model accurately represents the vehicle's distinctive open-top combat compartment. The Koehbe flamethrowers are intricately modeled along with the fuel tanks and spray pumps, providing a detailed and refined finish. The kit includes two flamethrower gunner figures with interchangeable heads—one with a regular field cap and the other with a mask. A driver figure for the driver's seat is also included. The track assembly uses the straightforward EZ track system, and the suspension features detailed sprocket wheels and road wheels, enhancing realism. This model adds depth to the Sd.Kfz.251 lineup known for its numerous variations.
