DAK Kubelwagon (German)

Description

The VW Type 82 Kubelwagon (or “bucket-car”) was the most common light utility vehicle of the German Army during WWII with over 50,000 being manufactured. Despite being only two-wheel drive, its performance surprised even its own developers during trials as it was capable of exceptional cross-country performance.

Many variants were made including the Schwimmwagen, a commander’s car with a Beetle body, a radio car and a light support version with an MMG on a pintle mount. Due to lack of fuel, there was even a coal powered model designed!
