This set is a unique replica of weaponry used by the Wehrmacht and paratrooper units during World War II, especially between 1943–1945. This plastic model kit from the renowned manufacturer Dragon guarantees high-quality details and excellent reproduction of the real proportions of this historical equipment.

Historical Overview

The Raketenwerfer 43 “Puppchen” was a German light rocket launcher designed for use against enemy armored vehicles. Unlike the popular Panzerfaust, it featured an enclosed firing mechanism, a transport carriage, and offered greater accuracy and range. Used mainly on the Eastern and Western fronts at the end of World War II, it was developed in response to the growing threat posed by Allied tanks.
