Description

The Waffentrager (8.8cm) tank-hunter was loosely based on the Panzer 38(t) chassis, but was wider, with the engine repositioned to the front of the vehicle. The details of the Waffentrager's actual service history are sketchy. Parts to complete 21 were expected in December to be ready by 15 January 1945. No records confirm how many saw action, but some prototypes are supposed to have seen action, most likely in Berlin's western suburbs. At least two are known to have been destroyed in and around Berlin in April and May 1945. A number also saw service with the Twelfth Army’s Ulrich von Hutten Division.

Miniatures are supplied unpainted and some assembly may be required.
