AFV Club 35117 Sd.Kfz.251/17 Ausf.C (1/35) – 1/35 Scale Plastic Model Kit

AFV Club 35117 Sd.Kfz.251/17 Ausf.C is an exceptionally detailed 1/35 scale plastic model kit designed for enthusiasts of WWII military technology. The German half-track armored personnel carrier Sd.Kfz.251/17 (Sonderkraftfahrzeug 251/17) was used by Wehrmacht forces, primarily from 1942 to 1945. Its distinctive Ausf.C version was equipped with a 2cm FlaK 38 automatic anti-aircraft gun, making it an anti-aircraft support vehicle on the battlefield. Sd.Kfz.251/17s took part in combat on the Eastern Front, Western Front, and in North Africa, supporting armored and mechanized units in countering enemy aircraft and light ground vehicles.

Manufactured by AFV Club, this model is made from high-quality plastic, ensuring ease of assembly and perfect reproduction of fine details—from rivets to surface texture. The kit includes precisely molded sprues with parts, clear elements for windows, and rubber tracks that further enhance the model's realism. The set also comes with photo-etched metal details, allowing for accurate representation of protective meshes and thin armament and equipment components. Paints and glue are not included in the kit and are recommended to be purchased separately.
