Does anyone know if there's an interior add-on kit out or coming? Seems like a great opportunity for the aftermarket

Anyone know if any the German armed forces would have used this fire truck, maybe the equivalent of their construction battalions? I tried googling and all kinds of search's but came up with nothing. I guess basicly I would like to know if this could be used as a German army support wehical?

So, the MiniArt version, item 35171, looks more complete since it has open doors and bins, next to the water pump in the trailer?

I have this kit in my stash and have yet to build it, but upon opening the box and looking at the contents it looks excellent, and is a welcome kit to have,
The possibilities of dioramas with this kit is endless.
Just bought the firemen figures also, and these also look very good. Nice addition to have in anyone`s stash.

At least fire trucks were used by the Luftwaffe. Check out this thread for some reference stuff :
