Tamiya Plastic Model Kit
German Self-Propelled Mobelwagen (1/35) 35237
This 1/35 scale model kit from Tamiya reproduces the German Self-Propelled AA Gun Mobelwagen, developed in the latter half of WWII to counter Allied air superiority. Built on the Panzer IV chassis, the Mobelwagen was armed with the powerful 3.7cm Flak 43 cannon, capable of firing 250 rounds per minute. Protective armoured plates surrounded the upper fighting compartment and could be raised or lowered depending on firing requirements.

- Gun barrel and sighting device elevate in unison for realistic positioning.
- Includes nylon mesh ammunition ejection net for added authenticity.
- Sliding upper chassis hatch and distinctive cylindrical exhaust pipes reproduced.
- Armour plates can be modelled in positions for travel, anti-aircraft firing, or horizontal firing.
- One crew figure in a skyward-gazing pose included.
- Overall length: 168mm, width: 82mm.
By 1945, 240 Mobelwagens had been produced, most serving on the Western Front to provide effective defence against Allied fighter and bomber attacks.
