Dragon Models 1:72 Armor Collector Series 60501
Krupp Kfz.70 Protze Truck Display Model
German Army, Eastern Front

1:72 Scale   Length   Width
Krupp Kfz.70 Protze Truck   2.75"   1"

The fully built-up 1/72 scale miniature incorporates full detail both above and below the chassis. For example, the wheels and independent coil spring suspension are masterfully represented. The Kfz.70 Personnel Carrier is finished in a whitewash camouflage scheme so commonly encountered during winter on the Eastern Front. This scheme has been carefully brushed onto the truck, giving it a realistically worn look. This winterized Dragon Armor item is an excellent representation of the 6x4 truck that was a workhorse of the German military during WWII, and it's a fine companion to Dragon Armor's growing range of German soft-skin vehicles.

Krupp Kfz.70 Protze Truck

Designed primarily as an artillery tractor, the 6x4 Krupp Protze was a workhorse of the Wehrmacht. It eventually saw use in a variety of roles, including that of mobile anti-aircraft artillery platform and more commonly, as an infantry carrier. An air-cooled 3.3L flat-four cylinder engine configuration gave the vehicle's nose its distinctive low, flat shape and provided the driver with superb forward visibility. Four-wheel drive coupled with independent six-wheel suspension made the vehicle ideally suited for light cross-country duties. Almost 7000 units were produced between 1933 and 1941.

Dragon's 1:72 scale Krupp Portze truck is constructed entirely of plastic to allow for maximum scale detail. The open-top cab is framed with a delicate transparent windshield and side mirrors and provides a clear view of driver's controls and instrument panel. The cargo bed is wonderfully detailed with simulated wood-grained sides and bolt-head construction details visible upon close inspection in addition to separately applied, hand-painted equipment. The hidden beauty of this model though, is found on the underside with accurately reconstructed details of the coil spring suspension on the rear wheels and leaf-spring suspension on the front wheels.
