ICM 1:35 Sd.Kfz.25 1/6 Ausf.A WWII German Armoured Command Vehicle

The ICM 1:35 Sd.Kfz. 251/6 Ausf. A WWII German Armoured Command Vehicle is a plastic scale model kit of the early-war German half-track command variant based on the Sd.Kfz. 251 armored personnel carrier.

About the vehicle

The Sd.Kfz. 251 series was the standard German armoured half-track APC used throughout World War II for troop transport, reconnaissance support, and command roles.

The Ausf. A / Sd.Kfz. 251/6 variant was a dedicated command vehicle (Kommandopanzerwagen) equipped with enhanced radio equipment, map tables, and communications gear. It was used by officers to coordinate armoured and mechanised units in the field, particularly during early campaigns such as the invasions of Poland and France.

Its open-topped fighting compartment (in early variants) allowed space for radios, staff work, and field command operations.
