Among the variants of well-known Sd.Kfz.250 family, one of the rarest was the Sd.Kfz.250/4 Truppenluftschützpanzerwagen. It was armed with Zwillingssockel 36 dual-mount machine guns, and was envisioned as a mobile antiaircraft vehicle.
The mounted twin MG34 weapons with an elevation range of +10º to 90º were protected by an armoured shield in the rear compartment. The weapons were operated by a single soldier on an integrated seat.
Dragon has expanded its Sd.Kfz.250 family with a 1/35 scale kit of this Sd.Kfz.250/4 Truppenluftschützpanzerwagen mit Zwilling MG34. While this halftrack variant never saw battle, it was field-tested, offering modellers ample scope if they elect to put it into a suitable diorama.
The Zwillingssockel 36 is newly tooled with highly detailed plastic injection and photo-etched parts. Just like the original dual-MG mount, it can also traverse 360º. The front armoured shield is also newly tooled.
To create this Sd.Kfz.250/4 variant, the fighting compartment interior has been appropriately rearranged. As part of Dragon’s facelift Sd.Kfz.250 series, it has an updated upper hull and Magic Tracks.
This halftrack type has not appeared as a plastic kit before, so it offers modellers something different.
