Book excerpt: Panzer Tracts No. 15-2 - mittlere Schuetzenpanzerwagen (Sd.Kfz.251) -History of Variants, Production, Organization, Issue, Tactics, and Employment in Action from 1939 to 1942 - A trip was made to the end of the earth (well, South Africa anyway) to accurately mea-sure the surviving Ausf.B and numerous trips (a bit closer to home) were made to thoroughly measure a surviving Ausf.C with a riveted armor body in order to create detailed as-built drawings. This in depth research also allowed the creation of accurate drawings of the related Ausf.A and the often misidentified mittlere ungepanzerte Mannschaftstransportwagen (Sd.Kfz.251).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During World War II, the two pre-eminent mechanized infantry forces of the conflict, the German Panzergrenadier arm and the US Army's armoured infantrymen, clashed in France and Belgium after the Normandy landings. These engagements went on to profoundly influence the use of mechanized infantry in the post-war world. Drawing upon a variety of sources, this book focuses on three key encounters between July and December 1944 including during Operation Cobra and the Battle of the Bulge, and examines the origins, equipment, doctrine and combat record of both forces. With specially commissioned full-colour artwork and maps, this study sheds light on the evolving nature of mechanized warfare at the height of World War II.

Book excerpt: Panzer Tracts No. 11-2 - Aufklaerungspanzerwagen (Full and Half-Tracked Armored Reconnaissance Vehicles) - H 8 H to VollkettenaufklaererThe Panzer Tracts team spent hundreds of hours measuring and drawing to create a new set of ultra-accurate as-built drawings of the famous Luchs Panzerspaehwagen II (2 cm) (Sd.Kfz.123). Now for the first time, we have created a conceptual sketch of the schwere Panzerspaehwagen (Halbketten) on the H 8 H Fahrgestell. The H 8 H was Germanys first attempt to get a reconnaissance vehicle into production that had increased obstacle crossing capability. This volume also includes rare photos, 1/35th scale drawings, and accurate statistics for the rare RK 9, Sd.Kfz.250/9 Ausf.A and Ausf.B, Luchs Versuchs-Fahrgestell Nr.29, Skoda T15, Pz.Kpfw.38t n.A., Aufklaerungspanzerwagen 38 (2 cm) Sd.Kfz.140/1, and Vollkettenaufklaerer 38. In accordance with our high standards, the text and data are based solely on primary sources. 49 rare large-format photos and 14 scale drawings are used to illustrate the 10 different armored reconnaissance vehicles in this 40 page book.
Download or read book Panzer Tracts No 2 2 Panzerkampfwagen II Ausf G H J L and M written by Thomas L. Jentz and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Panzer Tracts No. 2-2 - Panzerkampwagen II Ausf.G, H, J, L, and M development and production from 1938 to 1943. As a result of digging through public and private archives for 38 years, we are able to create this accurate history of the very rare variants from the Pz.Kpfw.II family - the VK 901, VK 903, VK 1301, VK 1303, and VK 1601. Original drawings, documented measurements, and original wartime photographs were used to create four-view drawings of the VK 901 and VK 1601 (printed at 1/35th scale). Over a thousand hours were spent precisely measuring external details of the "Luchs" in order to create as-built drawings of all six views (including right side and belly) with both the VK 1301 and VK 1303 turrets in 1/24th scale. Even the smallest details are clearly discernable in the component drawings at 1/10th scale including the surprise feature of an Orterkompass mounted on the turret roof. This 56 page book is illustrated with over 50 drawings and 41 clean/rare photos.

Download or read book SdKfz 251 Half Track 1939 45 written by Bruce Culver and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-07-20 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following in the best traditions of German ingenuity in design and construction of armoured vehicles, the SdKfz 251 firmly realised the concept of a competent cross-country tactical vehicle for armoured infantry units. So successful was this half-track that not only did a modified version of it remain in use with Czech forces well into the 1980s but also, ironically, the armoured infantry tactics that the Germans pioneered with it were adopted by Allied forces in the Second World War and helped them to achieve the eventual defeat of Germany. This book covers the genesis and development of the SdKfz 251, and details the numerous modifications and variations that sprang from combat experience.

Download or read book Sd kfz 251 Ausf d Walk Around written by Hans-Heiri Stapfer and published by MMD-Squadron Signal. This book was released on 2008 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considered the German Army's most important armored half-track in WWII, the Sd.Kfz.251 allowed the infantry to keep up with the Heer's fast armored elements. The vehicle came in 4 models and 23 variants, but the Ausf.D was the most produced model. In fact, Ausf.Ds represented nearly 70 percent of Sd.Kfz.251s built during wartime. The type's simplified design was the main contributor to this variant being produced in such substantial numbers, and the Ausf.D was the first of the 251s to have stowage bins built into the sides of the half-track. This mass-produced, streamlined vehicle truly proved its worth in WWII and saw action on every front.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The adoption of blitzkrieg tactics in the German Army prior to the start of World War II meant that Germany needed a new kind of fighting vehicle to transport troops around the battlefield in support of the Panzer spearheads. It was in response to this requirement that the armored halftrack was developed during the mid-1930s. The SdKfz 251 halftrack soon became one of the most numerous vehicles in German service during World War II, with over 15,000 produced. This title provides detailed, step-by-step instructions on how to build some of the most popular SdKfz 251 variants in both 1/72 and 1/35 scale. It also includes camouflage paint schemes and markings.
