Hi all,
I am about to start putting together the 234/2 Puma, but need some research material!
Would anyone be able to provide some links to data, images/operational pictures and some info that would help with identiying the German units that operated these vehicles, would like to incorporate a few figures into the final dio.
Thanks in advance

WW2daybyday.com has a lot of reference material on units and unit markings. I have a book called "Tanks and armored vehicles of WWII" by Jan Surmondt. It had a pic of a puma turret # 111 with the 2nd axle from the front missing tires! It just has the brake drum and axle hanging and looks operational. Could be interesting to model! I can't make out any unit markings from the angle of the shot. Looks to be painted in a two tone scheme of dunkelgelb and olivgrun. The info section only says that 3 smoke projectors were standard on each side of the turret and that the puma could also carry the Fu12 long range radio set. Hope this helps!

there's a very good article on ww2modelmaker. which I found very helpful when building mine
