History: The Sd.Kfz 251/1 Ausf D “Stuka zu Fuss” was a specialised variant of the standard German half-track, adapted to carry 280mm and 320mm rocket launchers. Introduced in 1943, it served as a mobile rocket artillery system providing devastating short-range fire support. Though slow to reload, its mobility allowed crews to strike and relocate rapidly, making it an effective weapon against fortified positions and troop concentrations. The vehicle’s unique design remains one of the most striking symbols of German armoured ingenuity during World War II.
This model kit requires assembly and painting. Glue, paints and tools are not included and must be purchased separately.
