Produktbeschreibung
Sd Kfz 250/9 (early, 2cm) - The lack of roads on the Russian Steppes hindered wheeled recce vehicles, but not half-tracks armed with the same powerful cannon.
The four-wheeled Sd Kfz 222 Armoured Car vehicles were found to be making hard work of the vast Russian terrain so in March 1942 it was suggested that the small Sd Kfz 250 halftrack might be a better choice for the reconnaissance role.
Three prototype vehicles of the Sd Kfz 250/9 design were sent to Russia and immediately proved far more capable of coping with the vast roadless distances encountered in the Soviet Union than wheeled vehicles.
In May 1943 production of the Sd Kfz 250/9 "Armoured Car" on the Alte version began. The turret, complete with 2cm KwK38 and MG34, from the Sd Kfz 222 armoured car was transplanted onto a new armoured roof.
When production of the Alte version of the SdKfz 250 was replaced by the simplified Neu version the /9 version was continued but the turret was changed to the later type as found on the SdKfz 234 "Puma" 8 wheeled armoured car.
This had the newer, more versatile, Hangelafette (swinging mount) for the 2cm KWK38 gun and the mg42 was now fitted.
In Flames of War you can replace your SdKfz 222 armoured cars with the SdKfz 250/9 armoured car. You still retain the "Recce" status but get the better Halftrack Cross-country movement for no extra cost!
The 2cm cannon has an anti aircraft capability and is great for shooting up infantry, soft transport or even light armoured vehicles. A must if you're considering building an Aufklarungsschwadron that will include an armoured car patrol. |
