Tamiya 35053 German Mounted Inf. (1/35) is a high-quality plastic model kit depicting German motorized infantry from World War II. The offered 1:35 scale miniature allows you to recreate a group of German soldiers on horseback – a rarely represented element in military modeling, which will perfectly complement any diorama or collection of vehicles and figures.

Historical Authenticity and Model Details

The models in the set depict Wehrmacht soldiers from the peak years of German ground operations (1939–1945). Mounted infantry was mainly used on the vast expanses of the Eastern Front, where it enabled quick movement in rugged terrain unsuitable for mechanized vehicles. The set is inspired by real units that used horses both for transporting supplies and soldiers.
