About product

Sd.Kfz. 2 Kettenkrad in 1:144 scale (Armory)

A resin kit of the German half-track tractor Sd.Kfz. 2 Kettenkrad in 1:144 scale from the manufacturer Armory. The unmistakable machine with a motorcycle front end and tank tracks is a rewarding accessory to airfield and ground dioramas — in this scale you will appreciate it mainly beside aircraft in 1:144.

The real subject

The Kettenkrad was developed by the NSU company as a light tractor for airborne and mountain units. The driver steered it by a motorcycle front fork, an Opel four-cylinder gasoline engine saw to the drive and the tracks did the main work. The machine pulled light weapons, trailers and field cabling, and it also made its name on field airfields, where it brought up ammunition and taxied aircraft to the parking apron. It served on the Eastern Front, in Africa and in Europe right up to the end of the war.

Building and painting tips

Separate the miniature castings from the casting blocks carefully with a sharp blade and keep them in a small box — small parts easily fly off. After washing them free of mold release agent, glue with super glue. A dark wash will bring the tracks out, gray Panzergrau or dark yellow with a mottled camouflage suits the body, and so does light dusting with pigments.

Who the model is for

  • aircraft modelers in 1:144 — the Kettenkrad belongs on every field airfield
  • collectors of miniature military hardware
  • builders of micro-dioramas of the Second World War

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

Yes, that is exactly where it will stand out — on field airfields the Kettenkrad commonly taxied aircraft and brought up ammunition.

With cyanoacrylate glue (super glue); wash the parts free of the remains of mold release agent before gluing.

There are few parts, but they are very small — we recommend tweezers, a sharp knife and a little patience.
