The Sd.Kfz. 250/3 was a variant of the German Sd.Kfz. 250 light armored half-track used during World War II. Specifically designed as a command vehicle, the 250/3 was equipped with enhanced radio communication systems, allowing it to serve as a mobile command post for military leaders. It featured a FuG 8 radio set with a large distinctive frame antenna, making it easily recognizable and ideal for maintaining communication between front-line units and higher command.
The vehicle was typically used by high-ranking officers and commanders, including famous figures like General Erwin Rommel, who used the Sd.Kfz. 250/3 during the North African campaign. Known for its mobility and ruggedness, the 250/3 allowed commanders to direct operations in the field while remaining protected from small arms fire and shrapnel. Its combination of communication capabilities and armored protection made it an essential asset for German military leadership during key campaigns of the war.
Featuring a host of detail, including a full interior, Takom's 1/35 scale model kit of Rommel's 'Greif' Sd.Kfz.250/3 half-track allows you to faithfully recreate this icon of the North African campaign. The kit features PE and clear parts, combined with exquisite detailing inside and out; the tracks are workable, and the suspension is also movable. Figures of Rommel and his driver are also included.
