Are you a collector of vintage military diecast? If so, you may be interested in this vintage replica of the Hanomag Sd.Kfz.251 Ausf. D mit Wurfrahmen 40. It was a variant of the widely used German armored personnel carrier (APC), the Sd.Kfz. 251. The toy is in mint condition, new in box. The original box is in excellent condition, solid, complete, crisp.
This particular variant was equipped with the Wurfrahmen 40 rocket launcher system, which was essentially a framework for launching 280mm high-explosive rockets.
The Sd.Kfz.251 Ausf. D mit Wurfrahmen 40 played a significant role as a support vehicle, providing mobile artillery support for infantry units. The Wurfrahmen 40 launcher could carry up to six rockets at a time and was mounted on the rear of the Sd.Kfz.251 chassis. It allowed for rapid, indirect fire against enemy positions, making it particularly effective in providing suppressing fire and attacking fortified positions.
This variant was used primarily on the Eastern Front during World War II, where its firepower and mobility were valued in the dynamic and often fluid battles. While it provided considerable firepower, the vehicle's armor was relatively light, offering limited protection against enemy fire.
