Panzer Tracts: NEW Volume 22-6 schwerer Zugkraftwagen 12t (Sd.Kfz.8)

A new volume after nine years, Panzer Tracts No.22-6 is set to become the definitive reference on all types and variants of the German Sd.Kfz.8 halftrack

Covering early production through armed and armoured versions, including the wooden Holzenpritsche, this book draws from meticulous archival research and precise measurements of surviving vehicles. With 104 pages planned, it includes 26 pages of highly accurate 1:35 scale CAD drawings that show every detail of every variant. The photo selection, typically two per page, focuses on clarity and rarity, making this an essential addition for historians, modellers, and enthusiasts alike.
