Historical Background and Application

Antennas of this type were widely used by German armored and motorized units from 1939 to 1945. The 2M type (2 meters in length) appeared on vehicles such as Sd.Kfz.251, Panzer IV, Tiger I, Panther, as well as command vehicles, Sd.Kfz.222 armored cars, and half-track personnel carriers. The radios enabled effective communication during operations on the European fronts, North Africa, and the Eastern Front.
