1/35 German Pkw.K1 Kubelwagen Type 82 (North Africa Version)

Description

This is an injection-plastic military vehicle model kit.

The Kubelwagen is a military vehicle produced in Germany during World War II. The name is an abbreviation of “Kubelsitzwagen,” which means a bucket-seat vehicle, and was originally a general term for military vehicles with bucket seats and folding tops. In 1938, the Porsche Design Office, which received a request from the Army Weapons Bureau, conducted research into converting the Volkswagen Type 1 into a military vehicle and completed a prototype, but there were concerns about its durability and weight, so they made improvements and developed the prototype 62. Field tests of the 62 model revealed issued such as adjusting the driving speed and improving mobility in the mountains and fields, so further improvements were made, and the 82 model was completed. Approximately 52,000 units of the 82 model were manufactured.
