The Sd.Kfz.250 leichter Schützenpanzerwagen was the German Army's light armoured half-track troop carrier, built on a shortened Sd.Kfz.10 chassis to give Panzergrenadier squads a fast, protected ride into battle. The early Ausf.A version, built using angled, riveted and welded armour plates before the simplified Ausf.B construction was introduced, carried a small infantry section along with an MG34 for close support and saw action from the Polish and French campaigns through the early years of the war in North Africa and the East.
This Dragon "2 in 1" kit lets builders choose between two different configurations of the Ausf.A hull, reflecting the small production variations seen on early vehicles, and uses slide-moulded parts to capture the distinctive angular armour panels and exposed rivet detail of the original hull design.
Included in the box are optional stowage items, a crew-served MG34 with mount, and markings for more than one vehicle, giving modellers flexibility in how they finish their build.
A compact, characterful subject with genuine early-war pedigree, this kit suits both dedicated German armour collectors and diorama builders looking to populate a Blitzkrieg-era scene.
