Battlefront Miniatures
1:100 Scale
The Scout Troop (Spähtrupp) is equipped with the Hotchkiss Schützenpanzer (infantry armoured vehicle, abbreviated to SPz) 11-2 Kurz (Short) tracked reconnaissance vehicle. It was introduced around the same time as the larger Schützenpanzer (or SPz) 12-3 Lang (HS.30) infantry fighting vehicle as used by the Panzergrenadiers. The SPz 11-2 Kurz is armed with the 20mm Hispano-Suiza 820 L/85 autocannon.
The SPz 11-2 Kurz had its weaknesses: it was relatively slow and quite loud for reconnaissance, and because of the high gear ratio, reversing was only possible at a little more than walking speed (6 km/h). Furthermore, the stub axles of the front drive wheels were weak and would break if the vehicle drove into a ditch too hard. The troops also often referred to the SPz 11-2 Kurz vehicle as a "brake block" (Bremsklotz), "wheel chock" (Unterlegkeil) or "combat wheelchair" (Gefechtsrollstuhl).
Metal and resin components.
Contents:
2 Miniatures
‣ 2 SPz 11-2 Kurz Scouts
Miniatures are supplied unpainted. Preparation and assembly are required.
