Opel Blitz Tankwagen in WWII Service

The Italeri 2808S presents a finely proportioned 1/48 model of the Opel Blitz Tankwagen Kfz.385, reflecting the vehicle used for fuel supply and aircraft refuelling. The moulding reproduces the simplified cab, the distinctive rear fuel tank and the elevated exhaust arrangement used to protect refuelling operations.

Builders who focus on period accuracy will value the kit's suitability for display. The Opel Blitz proved dependable across diverse theatres, from arid campaigns to snowy battlegrounds, and it remains a popular subject for WWII model scenes.

How long does assembly typically take?

Assembly time depends on experience and finish level; a straightforward build can take several hours, while detailed painting and weathering will add extra sessions over multiple days.

What paint colours match historical finishes?

Research period references for the correct field and Luftwaffe refuelling liveries. Common choices include wartime greys and dark earth variants depending on the theatre and year.

Are extra aftermarket parts recommended?

Most builders will find the kit complete for static display, though aftermarket photo-etch or resin upgrades can enhance fine details if desired.
