Dragon’s newest 1/72 scale depicts a special multinational M4A2 – an American tank supplied to Russia but captured by Germany! As the tide turned against Germany and equipment shortages became more and more acute, captured enemy tanks such as Russian Sherman M4A2s were often pressed back into service. Entitled a ‘Beutepanzer M4A2’. The Volkswagen Kübelwagen (short for Kübelsitzwagen, meaning "bucket seat car") was a military vehicle built by Volkswagen for use by the German military (both Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS). Based heavily on the Volkswagen Beetle, it was prototyped as the Type 62, but eventually became known internally as the Type 82. With its rolling chassis and mechanics built at Stadt des KdF-Wagens and its body built by US-owned firm Ambi Budd in Berlin, the Kübelwagen was for the Germans what the jeep was for the Allies. |
