Developed during the mid-1930s, the SdKfz 251 was one of the most numerous vehicles used by German forces during World War II. This book covers the plethora of model kits devoted to this half-track, as well as providing tips on building, detailing, converting and customising all kinds of models.
The adoption of blitzkrieg tactics in the German Army prior to the start of World War 2 meant that Germany needed a new kind of fighting vehicle for transporting troops around the battlefield in support of the Panzer spearheads. It was in response to this requirement that the armoured half track was developed during the mid-30s. The SdKfz 251 half-track soon became one of the most numerous vehicles in the German World War 2 arsenal, and saw service on every front from Russia to France. This is the first volume ever dedicated to modelling this fascinating and ever-popular subject.
