German Self-Propelled Howitzer Wespe (1/35) 35200
This 1/35 scale Tamiya kit recreates the German Sd.Kfz.124 Wespe, a light self-propelled howitzer based on the Panzer II chassis. Developed as a mobile artillery platform for infantry support, the Wespe mounted the 10.5cm leFH18/2 L/28 light field howitzer in a lightly armoured open-top fighting compartment.
- Accurate reproduction of the Panzer II-based chassis and suspension.
- Detailed open-top superstructure with realistic crew space layout.
- Includes parts to depict the 10.5cm howitzer with muzzle brake and full elevation/traverse capability.
- Optional accessories and ammunition rounds for added realism.
- Suitable for dioramas depicting Eastern Front operations.
First produced in February 1943, the Wespe served until the end of WWII, valued for its mobility and effective infantry fire support role. This model captures the vehicle’s distinctive profile and fine details, making it a great addition to any WWII German armour collection.
