The Eyes of the German Army
During the first half of WWII, German reconnaissance units relied greatly on the Sd.Kfz.231 series heavy armored car. 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.

The Tiger I was a constant threat to the Allied forces during WWII, and a single Tiger I was even said to have taken out five Sherman tanks in one battle. The 57-ton hull featured armor that measured 100mm at its thickest, and the 56-caliber 88mm main gun was capable of piercing 110mm of armor at a range of 2,000 meters. It is unsurprising, therefore, that the tank spawned a number of aces including Lieutenant M. Wittman. Around 1,300 Tiger Is were built from June 1942 onwards; the late production version featured additional periscopes on the cupola and large steel road wheels with built-in rubber rings among numerous improvements.

It weighed 2.4 tons and could accommodate two crew members, achieving a top speed of 80km/h.

The Russian 1.5T Cargo Truck served a pivotal role in the war efforts of the Russians during WWII. The truck used the bare minimum of metal due to the scarcity of materials. It lacked doors, front bumper, right headlight, front brakes, and the fenders were flattened.

When fully assembled, this 1/48 scale model measures 107mm long and 44mm wide.

Among the vehicles employed by the German military in WWII was a sturdy 750cc-class motorcycle with sidecar, powered at up to 95km/h by a 2-cylinder engine. The wheel on the sidecar could also be powered, making the bike and sidecar into a 2-wheel drive unit more than capable of holding its own on poor surfaces. Such versatility inevitably led to its use in a wide variety of locations from North Africa to the Eastern Front, seeing duty in reconnaissance and transport roles to name but two. If need arose, it could even be fitted with a MG34 machine gun and take the attack to the enemy.

German forces relied heavily upon their workhorse the Panzer IV during WWII, and numerous variants were manufactured. Of them, the Ausf.H is often regarded as the most polished piece of design and production. It packed a telling punch with its long-barreled 7.5cm gun, and was fitted with distinctive Schurzen armor plates to provide added protection from anti-tank rifles. Around 2,300 Ausf.H Panzer IVs rolled off of the production lines between April 1943 and February 1944, and late production variants featured steel upper return rollers and cast metal idler wheels, plus inverted V-shaped additions to track links preventing slippage.Precision plastic assembly model kit.

An Easy Ride!
The U.S. M4 Sherman tank was undoubtedly one of the symbols of WWII, deployed in great quantities and numerous variants to counter the potent threat of German armor.
One such variant was the M4A3E8, which was one of the final Sherman types and thus had the benefit of design improvements developed from experience in battle. These included a hardy welded late production hull, plus the welcome addition of the 76mm main gun. It was also fitted with new Horizontal Volute Spring Suspension (HVSS), and wider tracks, making for the significantly more comfortable ride that led to the M4A3E8's nickname of "Easy Eight".
They were thrown into their maiden operation in the Battle of the Bulge in December 1944 as part of the 4th Armored Division under General Patton's overall command, contributing to the relief of the besieged town of Bastogne and the eventual triumph of the Allies in the European Theater.
