German Truck V3000S (1941 production) 1/35 ICM-35411

During World War II, 3-ton cargo trucks formed the backbone of the German Wehrmacht’s vehicle fleet. One of the most numerous models was the Ford V3000S, produced since 1941 in Ford’s German plants in Cologne. This truck, equipped with a V8 engine and rear-wheel drive, was widely used on all fronts: the German-Soviet front, North Africa, Italy and France. However, its limited off-road capability led to the production of Maultier versions with rear tracks. In total, between 1941 and 1946, some 25,000 units were produced in Germany, France and the Netherlands.
