Dragon Military Models 1/35 SdKfz 234/4 PzSpahWg w/7.5cm L/48 Gun Kit
Development work of Sd.Kfz.234 commenced in August 1940 and the Sd.Kfz.234 had four distinct variants, the last of which was the Sd.Kfz.234/4. The production variant of this 8-wheeled vehicle boasted a 7.5cm PaK 40 L/46 anti-tank gun installed in an open-topped fighting compartment. Only 89 vehicles were produced between December 1944 and March 1945, and that particular vehicle is represented by Item No.6772 in Dragon’s 1/35 scale kit collection. Interestingly, an improved Sd.Kz.234/4 was also planned and this would have featured a 7.5cm L/48 AK 7B84 cannon.
This novel platform can now be obtained by model-makers thanks to Dragon! This 1/35 scale kit is wisely based on the foundation of the aforementioned Sd.Kfz.234/4. It thus boasts handy features such as drive shafts and tie rods that allow the wheels to be angled. However, the kit has also been outfitted with the proposed more powerful anti-tank weapon. Indeed, the 7.5cm L/48 barrel, gun mount and related armor plates are new, while there is abundant detail in the vehicle’s open-topped fighting compartment. Dragon’s Sd.Kfz.234 family is already highly acclaimed, and this kit adds a refreshing new member to the family.
