1⁄35
Wednesday, July 05, 2017 - 04:20 PM UTC
After last year's Panzerbefehlswagen III Ausf.H (Item No. 6844) from Dragon, they have now announced a special DAK configuration of this Pz.Bef.Wg.III Ausf.H
This specialized command tank containing long-range radios was created based on a standard Ausf. H gun tank, the first Panzer III version to be fitted with a 5cm KwK L/42 cannon. However, on the Pz.Bef.Wg. version there was no 5cm gun fitted, with just a single MG34 for self-defense and a dummy gun to fool the enemy.
Dragon’s new 1/35 scale DAK kit is different to the preceding Pz.Bef.Wg.III Ausf.H kit in some noticeable ways. For example, it bears a large storage box on the engine deck, plus a smaller storage box on the front left of the fender. Another modification is a spare-track rack on the glacis plate.
The sprockets and idler wheels are also different to that on the predecessor. And unchanged, is the characteristic large frame antenna for the long-range radio.
Plus the vehicle looks most impressive when the turret-mounted telescopic antenna is shown extended.
