Das Werk Raketenjagdpanzer Jaguar I 2 in 1 Kit (1/35) Item DW35035

Das Werks Raketenjagdpanzer Jaguar I brings to life the West German Cold War-era tracked tank destroyer armed with anti-tank missile launchers. This 2 in 1 new-tool kit allows modelers to build either the classic ATGM armed Jaguar I or its early Beobachtungspanzer (recon/spotting) variant. Featuring accurate missile launch rails, twin-crew open turret, realistic suspension, and detailed hull interior, this kit merges firepower with reconnaissance flexibility.

• 1/35 scale injection-moulded plastic kit (Das Werk DW35035)
• Two build options: ATGM armed Raketenjagdpanzer or Beobachtungspanzer observation version
• Selectable turret: missile rails & storage or observation mast/electronics setup
• Detailed hull interior with crew seats, ammo racks, and wiring ducts
• Torsion-bar suspension, road wheels, sprockets, return rollers and tracks
• Photo-etched parts: periscopes, mounts, antenna bases, and grills
• Clear parts for vision blocks, missile sight optics, and front lights

Note: This kit requires assembly and painting. Glue, paints, and tools are not included.

Historical Background:

The Jaguar I (Raketenjagdpanzer 1) entered Bundeswehr service in the early 1960s, mounting French SS.11 anti-tank missile launchers on a tracked hull. Designed for rapid anti-armor strikes, it offered long-range firepower but limited secondary armament. The Beobachtungspanzer conversion swapped missiles for observation equipment and additional radios, supporting artillery spotting missions. This kit faithfully represents both roles in one versatile package.
