The Sd.Kfz. 251 (Sonderkraftfahrzeug 251) half-track was a World War II German armoured personnel carrier designed by the Hanomag company, based on its earlier, unarmored Sd.Kfz. 11 vehicle. The Sd.Kfz. 251 was designed to transport the Panzergrenadier (German mechanized infantry) into battle. Sd.Kfz. 251s were the most widely produced German half-tracks of the war, with at least 15,252 vehicles and variants produced by seven manufacturers.
''As is usual for COBI this is a well-made and impressive set. Considering the limitations of the parts involved it is an excellent representation of the halftrack. Another win for Cobi.'' ~ Tim.H
