Panzerkampfwagen II Ausf C - 1-100 Scale 3D print model

The Panzerkampfwagen II, identified by the Heer as SD.Kfz.121, was the second armoured vehicle produced in Germany after the First World War and was designed to replace the Panzer I, judged too light, waiting for the production of the more advanced models III and IV. The latter should have been the tanks supplied to the Panzerdivisions, but when the war broke out on 1 September 1939, very few units had been distributed to the panzer battalions. Thus the burden of supporting the clashes fell on the two light models, initially conceived for a training function. During the Polish campaign, over 1,200 Panzer IIs were employed. And still at the dawn of the invasion of France and Low Countries about a thousand of Panzer IIs were involved in the operations. The C version was produced in about 600 vehicles, between 1938 and the summer of 1940.

The model is designed for 1/100 scale (or 15 mm) and is perfectly detailed in every aspect: once printed, it would be a great little tank for your wargames life Flames of War or similar. The model is divided into 5 parts: upper and lower hull, left and right tracks, turret (that can easily rotate). The measures: 4.8 cm lenght, 2.3 cm width, 2.15 cm height. The actual model in the pictures of the preview was printed with a Elegoo Mars 3.
