About product

Sd.Kfz.232 6-Rad 1:35 - Italeri

An injection-molded plastic kit of the German heavy armored reconnaissance vehicle Sd.Kfz.232 (6-Rad) in 1:35 scale from Italeri. It is a classic injection-molded tooling with fine engraving and a decal sheet for several marking options. The six-wheel version is the early variant of the heavy Panzerspähwagen, easily recognized by the conspicuous frame antenna above the hull.

The real subject

The Sd.Kfz.232 (6-Rad) was a schwerer Panzerspähwagen, that is a heavy armored reconnaissance vehicle built on the modified chassis of an ordinary three-axle (six-wheel) truck. The 232 version was fitted with a powerful radio set and the characteristic large frame antenna (Rahmenantenne), thanks to which it could pass reports back to headquarters from the front of an advance. The vehicle carried a turret with a 2 cm automatic gun and a machine gun. It was used in the prewar years and at the start of the Second World War, in Spain, in Poland and in France; later it was replaced in the heavy reconnaissance role by more modern eight-wheel vehicles.

Building and painting tips

First finish the chassis, the wheels and the visible interior parts, and only then close up the hull and fit the turret. Assemble the frame antenna carefully and glue it on at the very end, so that it is not damaged during handling. Glue the plastic with thin cement for polystyrene and clean up the parting lines. Spray a primer before painting. Early German vehicles usually wore gray panzergrau, although other schemes appeared on prewar machines and on those used in Spain. Build up the weathering with a wash in the engraved lines, a dry brush on the edges and pigments for dust and mud on the wheels and the suspension.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of early German armored and reconnaissance vehicles
  • Fans of armored cars with the characteristic frame antenna
  • Modelers who like classic injection-molded kits in 1:35
  • Builders of dioramas from the prewar period and the start of the war

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

FAQ

It is a German heavy armored reconnaissance vehicle on a six-wheel chassis, fitted with a radio set and a large frame antenna. It carried a turret with a 2 cm gun and served for long-range reconnaissance.

Above all the large frame antenna (Rahmenantenne) above the hull, which served the powerful radio set and is the typical identifying feature of the 232 version.

It is classic injection-molded plastic from Italeri. Even a moderately advanced beginner will manage it; only the fine frame antenna deserves extra attention.
