Armored vehicle Sd.Kfz 234/3 Italeri-6756

The armored vehicles of the series Schwerer Panzerspähwagen Sd.Kfz.
234 were produced by the German war industry in the final phase of World War II.
They were characterized by their high level of construction quality, combining mobility, operational flexibility and offensive capability.
The design was an excellent mix of all-terrain speed, protection and firepower, and was able to synthesize the operational experience that the Wehrmacht had accumulated in the early years of the conflict.
It could reach a top speed of 85 km/h on the road.
Among the various versions produced, the Sd.Kfz.
234/3 was armed with a 75 mm KwK37 short-barrelled cannon, installed in a fixed position in an “open-air” combat chamber, which could be effectively employed as infantry support, against poorly protected targets, but also against light armored vehicles. The Sd.Kfz. 234 represented a significant advance in armored vehicle design, enabling German forces to conduct rapid and effective battlefield reconnaissance.
Its ability to operate in various types of terrain, from paved roads to uneven terrain, gave it a great tactical advantage.
In addition, its combination of speed and armament made it ideal for quick raids and ambushes, providing crucial support to infantry units and other combat vehicles.
