Description:

Sd. Kfz. 251/7 Pioneer Vehicle (Sd. Kfz. 251/7C Assault Bridge)

Unassembled plastic model kit in 1/72 scale of a German WWII armoured half-track Sd.Kfz.251, engineers assault vehicle /7 variant, Ausf.C.

This kit is a variation of kit  ESCI – 8359 – 8002 – Hanomag Sd. Kfz. 251/1 with new parts for the Pioneer bridge, 8 new parts. The depiction of the bridges is basic but acceptable at the time, the interior detail has no changes which probably is not accurate for an Engineers variant, together with the already basic interior detail of the base Sd.Kfz.251 kit. As the kit uses all the parts of the parent kit, wheels and tracks are still a problem, especially the early releases with single piece vinyl tracks.

For years this was the only depiction of this topic, but Dragon ended releasing both Ausf.C and Ausf.D variants with the assault bridges in a number of releases, initially as Dragon – 7265 – Sd.Kfz.251/7 Ausf. C PionierPanzerwagen but later also included in Dragon – 7606 – Sd.Kfz.251 Ausf.C w/3.7cm Pak 36 (2 in 1) or Dragon – 7315 – Sd.Kfz.251/7 Ausf.C w/2.8cm PzB 41 AT GUN plus the Ausf.D variants, which are superior to the old ESCI kit or the Italeri reissue.
