Role of the German 3Ton 4x2 Cargo Truck in WWII

Built in the 1930s, the German 3Ton 4x2 Cargo Truck was valued for its rugged 6-cylinder petrol powerplant and flexible payload capacity. Its compact footprint and dependable driveline let it serve as a fuel tender, ambulance, radio platform and general supply vehicle across varied terrain.

Kit Features

  • Driver and navigator figures included to animate the cab.
