Why this kit matters
The Sd.Kfz.8 Gepanzerte 12t was a German heavy half-track with added armor protection. It was designed to provide a more protected vehicle for commanders or forward observers.

Building this model allows one to explore a unique and less-known vehicle in WWII military history.
This model kit allows you to recreate a detailed replica of this rare armored half-track. Building this kit provides an engaging and rewarding experience, perfect for those deeply interested in military history and modelling. The finished model makes an impressive display piece, showcasing the design and capabilities of the Sd.Kfz.8 Gepanzerte 12T.
