The Tamiya 35151 kit presents an accurate 1/35 scale replica of the German Sd.Kfz.251/1 Ausf.D, a half-track vehicle known for its innovative rocket launcher system. This model captures the essence of the "Stuka zu Fuss," a nickname inspired by the Ju87 dive bomber, reflecting its role in providing mobile artillery support during World War II. The kit is designed for enthusiasts who appreciate historical accuracy and intricate detail.
During the early 1940s, the German Wehrmacht sought to enhance the firepower of their motorized infantry units. The Sd.Kfz.251/1 mit Wurfrahmen was a solution, equipped with six external frames for launching short-range rockets. These were mounted on the sides of the vehicle, allowing for effective targeting through vehicle alignment and adjustable firing angles. This model kit meticulously recreates these features, offering hobbyists a challenging yet rewarding build.
