Introduction to the Hanomag Sd.Kfz. 251/1 model

The Hanomag Sd.Kfz. 251/1 was an important armoured personnel carrier used by German forces in the Second World War. Developed in 1938 through collaboration between Hanomag and Bussing-NAG, the vehicle addressed the need for mechanised infantry transport. This kit reproduces the vehicle's main characteristics for scale modelling projects.

Kit features and finishing potential

Tamiya's 1/35 kit is produced with fine plastic mouldings in gray and dark green. The exterior shows realistic panel detailing and the tracks are modelled with full attention to form. Included are five crew figures that add personality and realism to displays. With step-by-step pictorial instructions and well-engineered parts, the kit suits modellers looking for authenticity and a rewarding finish.

Period photos and reference guides suggest a range of drab greens and earth tones. Many modellers use a medium olive or field green as a base and layer weathering to replicate operational finishes.
The kit is detailed out of the box, but some modellers add fine wiring, aftermarket stowage or photo-etched parts for extra realism. These upgrades are optional and depend on the level of finish desired.
Display in a closed cabinet or under a clear dust cover to protect paint and decals. Avoid direct sunlight and extreme temperature swings to keep adhesives and finishes stable.
