Hello Robert,

Im happy you found and enjoyed this thread. This build was in fact OOB plus whatever i cpuld scratch up or grab from the spares box...no after market goodies on this..or most all my builds for that matter. Tha thin wallet doesnt allow for kit and AM goodies! I did thoroughly enjoy bringin' this oldie up to par and put my own spin on it. Later this year i hope to have it as part of a dio with a Kubelwgen and 2-3 figs, one being a Rommel fig donated to me by my nephew. If you build this i would love to see it come together. Thanks man!

Gary

That large antenna is a mobile radio communication role and was used to direct Luftwaffe bombers to their intended targets. The second antenna is a multi-purpose antenna.

Later versions had the star antenna installed.

Not the Master, just knew the answer.

Hi, Jeff

Pls., allow me an add (though alittle late, sorry.): the antenna is a NVIS antenna. These antennas were mainly seen on reconaissance vehicles.
Also, they were used in command vehicles. NVIS is a technology. This has nothing to do with directing bombers to their targets, which was done by other positions in the organisation structure of Das Heer.
Anyway, this little command vehicle gave us all an educational and amuzing time. Looking forward to see the next build.

txs for sharing with us.

Is it a horn?

Yes,it must be it. T-34 and Willys hornes look almost the same, so it must be so

I'm not particulary fond with half track vehicles, but I can say that, as usual, you're doing a great job indeed Gary
