Sd.Kfz. 231 (6-Rad) – a detail set 1:35 from Royal Model adds detail to the German heavy six-wheeled reconnaissance armored car from the start of the Second World War. The basic model is bought separately.
Responsibility details are not available.
A detailing set from Royal Model for the earlier type of German heavy reconnaissance car. It completes the areas that tend to be simplified on a plastic kit and moves the finished model closer to the real subject. The vehicle is obtained separately.
The abbreviation 6-Rad distinguishes this type from the later and better-known eight-wheeled car with the same number. The earlier variant came about by modifying a production 6x4 truck chassis, onto which an angular armored hull with a rotating turret was set. The armament was a 20 mm KwK 30 automatic cannon and a coaxial machine gun. The car had a second driving position at the rear so that it could reverse at full speed, which was valued in reconnaissance. It was in service from the mid-1930s and went through the campaigns in Poland and in France, but its poor performance off the road soon pushed it aside in favor of the eight-wheeled successors.
Finish and paint the chassis and the running gear before you seat the hull, otherwise the underside is hard to reach. Glue the small accessories with cyanoacrylate glue in small doses. The gray shade of early German vehicles looks better when, once it has dried, you play it with a fine dust pigment on the fenders and the wheels.
Only the add-on set is included, not the plastic armored car or paints.
