The Ford V8-G81A Funkkraftwagen was a specially adapted command car of the Ford brand, built under license in German factories in Cologne. It was based on the popular Ford G81A model, featuring an improved 8-cylinder engine and enhanced bodywork. A key feature of the Funkkraftwagen was its rear compartment, adapted to house a range of radio equipment, enabling efficient communication on the front line. This vehicle served in Wehrmacht, Luftwaffe, and police units alike, being an essential element in command and reconnaissance structures.

The Roden 818 model faithfully reproduces the military radio vehicle version, showcasing its distinctive superstructure with radio station, cable reels, and detail additions unique to German field versions. The set includes carefully reproduced interior components, separately cast doors and hoods, as well as realistically rendered radio equipment. The model does not include glue or paints, giving you creative freedom to arrange and personalize the final appearance of the vehicle.

We especially recommend this model to advanced modelers and enthusiasts of World War II military vehicles who appreciate a high degree of historical and constructional detail. The kit also provides an excellent base for advanced improvements, such as additional resin accessories or photo-etched parts (sold separately).
