German Radio Communication Truck, Krupp L3H 163

The once more improved model Krupp L3H 163 – which was propelled by the strengthened M 12 engine with 110 HP – was manufactured from 1936 to 1938.

Typical for the Funkbetriebskraftwagen – radio operating motor vehicle (Kfz.72) were the two windows on both sides of the box body and two radio masts on the rear of the box body.

Two Auffahrbohlen – supporting planks – were mounted on the left side of the box body while the eight rods of the 10m Steckmast – radio mast – were stored in special mountings on the right side.

Posted on by

This is the ICM 35466 kit in 1/35 scale, of the ‘German Truck, Henschel 33 D1’.

German Truck, Henschel 33 D1

In the course of the first program for motorising the Reichswehr from 1926, development of three-axled cross-country lorries with a payload of 3 tons was demanded besides others.

Three companies were involved in the development: Büssing, Henschel and Krupp. The first Henschel model – the Henschel type 33 B1 – was delivered in 1928. The vehicles delivered to the Reichswehr had spoke rims with three spokes and dual tyres on the rear axles. In 1929, the Henschel type 33 D1 with the stronger D engine entered serial production.

Compared to the Henschel type 33 B1, the Henschel type 33 D1 had a longer engine bonnet.
