The vehicles were characterized by a high standard of construction quality that offered mobility, protection, and offensive capability. The 234 could reach a maximum speed of 85 km \/ h on the road. Of the versions produced, the Sd.Kfz. 234\/4 was armed with the powerful 75 mm gun KwK 40, capable of penetrating much of the armour of opposing enemy vehicles. The gun was installed in a fixed position in the centre of the “open air” combat chamber. The protection of the crew was afforded by a shield, like that of the Pak 40 used by the infantry. All these capabilities combined, provided the Wehrmacht with an armoured car that met the full range of operational requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Italeri","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51481462210827,"sku":"7047","price":13.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0777\/1809\/4091\/files\/italeri-7047-sd_kfz_-2344-1.jpg?v=1750697705"},{"product_id":"icm-72411-1-72-l-pz-sp-wg-2cm-sd-kfz-222","title":"l.Pz.Sp.Wg.

The new series was developed on a specialised standardised chassis (Einheitsfahrgestell) produced by Horch, featuring all-wheel drive, independent suspension, and a rear-mounted engine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSeveral variants of light armoured cars were produced within this new series. The most numerous version was the Sd.Kfz.222, with 989 units manufactured between 1935 and 1943. This armoured car was intended for reconnaissance missions and was armed with a 20 mm KwK 30 or KwK 38 automatic cannon paired with an MG 34 machine gun. A distinctive feature of the Sd.Kfz.222 was its open-topped, ten-sided turret protected by folding mesh screens against hand grenades. The crew consisted of three men: commander\/gunner, loader, and driver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnother model, the Sd.Kfz.223, served as a communications and reconnaissance vehicle, maintaining contact between reconnaissance units and headquarters. Its most recognisable feature was a powerful radio set equipped with a large folding frame antenna (Rahmenantenne). A total of 550 vehicles of this type were produced.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Sd.Kfz.260 and Sd.Kfz.261 modifications (Kleiner Panzerfunkwagen) were developed as specialised armoured radio vehicles for higher headquarters and communications units. They used the same armoured hull as the reconnaissance variants but lacked a turret and main armament, with the crew carrying only a submachine gun for self-defence. The absence of the turret provided sufficient interior space for a four-man crew and extensive radio equipment. Altogether, 493 vehicles of these variants were produced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAll of these armoured cars proved themselves highly effective under combat conditions, and thanks to their reliability, they remained in service until the very end of the war in 1945.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ICM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53143885381899,"sku":"DS7207","price":62.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0777\/1809\/4091\/files\/ds7207_en.jpg?v=1780086723"}],"url":"https:\/\/anglia-models.com\/collections\/typ-mil-armoured-car-1-72-ww2.oembed","provider":"Anglia Models","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
