Item 35224 1/35 German Schwimmwagen Type 166 (featuring narrow tyres) has been a strong-selling kit since 1998. Now, we are delighted to welcome the release of a Schwimmwagen kit with wide tyres, additional equipment such as MG34 machine gun and new two figures. Criss-crossed by rivers and dotted with wetlands, European geography poses significant military challenges and led the German Wehrmacht to develop the Schwimmwagen, an amphibious vehicle based upon the Ferdinand Porsche-designed Kübelwagen. With a 4-cylinder gasoline engine capable of 25hp, the Schwimmwagen featured the 80km/h top speed on ground. The rear three-bladed screw propeller was lowered manually using a rod and provided water speed up to 10km/ h. While paucity of materials meant many Schwimmwagens used 133mm tyres, those with wider 200mm tyres enjoyed superior off-road performance.
