About product

Sd.Kfz.232 6-Rad 1:72 (Italeri)

An injection-molded plastic kit of the German heavy reconnaissance armored car in 1:72 scale by Italeri. The model captures the six-wheeled 6-Rad version with its characteristic frame antenna over the hull. It is a smaller kit with a reasonable number of parts; take the exact contents and markings from the instructions in the box.

The real subject

The Sd.Kfz.232 6-Rad was a German reconnaissance armored car of the early 1930s built on a three-axle truck chassis. It carried a 2 cm autocannon and a machine gun and, in the early stages of the Second World War, served for long-range reconnaissance. The conspicuous frame above the vehicle carried the antenna of a powerful radio set. It was later replaced in service by more modern four- and eight-wheeled cars, yet it remains a characteristic vehicle of the opening period of the war.

Building and painting tips

Use thin cement for plastic and, at this small scale, work with a sharp knife and tweezers. Assemble the wheels and the fine parts of the frame antenna carefully so that they sit straight; the antenna frame is made of thin parts, so it is best added with super glue only once the hull is painted. Lay down a primer before painting and spray with an airbrush; a small vehicle comes to life with the detail brought up by washes and light dust pigments on the chassis.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of early Second World War German vehicles
  • Enthusiasts of armored cars and reconnaissance vehicles
  • Modelers who collect in the space-saving 1:72 scale
  • Builders of smaller dioramas and columns

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

FAQ

The designation 6-Rad means a six-wheeled chassis. This Sd.Kfz.232 stands on a three-axle base derived from a truck.

The conspicuous frame above the vehicle carried the antenna of a powerful radio set, which made the car a reconnaissance and signals asset.

In 1:72 scale it is a smaller kit with a reasonable number of parts. It only calls for care with the fine antenna and the wheels.
