It also came armed with a KwK30 20mm cannon and an MG34 machine gun mounted on its turret. The 8-wheel drive Sd.Kfz.232 had an on-road top speed of 90km\/h, and a rear driving position to facilitate swift escape from threatening situations. Its most identifiable point was a large frame-type antenna mounted on the body. These 8-wheeled armored cars were deployed to armored reconnaissance battalions of Panzer divisions and served as the eyes of the German army from Europe and North Africa to the Russian front.\u003cbr clear=\"both\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tmpblock_ block_v16_ wysiwyg_\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"img_\"\u003e\u003ca class=\"popup-image\" href=\"https:\/\/d7z22c0gz59ng.cloudfront.net\/japan_contents\/img\/usr\/item\/pkg\/32574_p1.jpg\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/d7z22c0gz59ng.cloudfront.net\/japan_contents\/img\/usr\/item\/pkg\/32574_p1.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wysiwyg_area_\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text_\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAbout the Model\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1\/48 scale plastic model assembly kit of the German 8-Wheeled Heavy Armored Car Sd.Kfz.232. ★Length: 140mm, width: 50mm.
