VEH003 - SdKfz 232 8 Rad Schwerer Panzerspähwagen - Stalingrad 1942
Reconniassance Battalion, 16th Panzer Division, 6th Army
Following up on the successful launch of our Stugs for Stalingrad, we are pleased to present you with our next vehicle in our ever expanding Stalingrad range, VEH003 SdKfz 232 8 Rad Schwerer Panzerspähwagen. Germany developed the 232 for use in the traditional cavalry role of the armed forces, namely identifying and locating the enemy and other reconnaissance tasks. However, when called upon the 232 did fight and engage the enemy with its 2cm KwK 30 L/55 autocannon and it's MG34 Machine gun. At Stalingrad, the 232 was amongst the first vehicles to reach the Volga river.
