King & Country's WH049 Sd.Kfz250/11 Panzerbuchse 41
This lightly armoured halftrack mounting a 2.8cm gun was intended to be a close-support, anti-tank weapon for motorized infantry.
The first examples reached German units on the Eastern Front early in 1942. Although an interesting development it never achieved major success because of the low effective range of its 2.8cm gun. It remained in production for just one year.
However, as a representative German model of the war’s mid years… it’s a great little addition to any WW2 German collection.
