Italeri 7079 - 1/72 Sd.Kfz. 251/10 Armoured Vehicle with 3.7 cm PaK - scale modeller edition  [IT-7079S]

Review of the Italeri 7079 1/72 Sd.Kfz. 251/10

Italeri 7079 reproduces the Sd.Kfz. 251/10 Schutzenpanzerwagen at 1/72 scale, focusing on the half-track form and the 3.7 cm PaK mounting. The compact kit is suited to hobbyists who favour historically accurate subjects in a manageable size.

Design background and modelling strengths

The Sd.Kfz. 251 series allowed infantry and support weapons to move together under armour. This 1/72 representation emphasises the vehicle silhouette and gun emplacement, making it a useful piece for period vignettes or small dioramas.

Practical build advice

Handle small parts with tweezers and use light clamps for precise joins. Test fit the PaK assembly early, and address seam lines before painting to keep the finished model crisp and true to the real vehicle.
