15mm/1:100 German Munitionsschlepper – solid resin, hand-painted and weathered. Ideal for collectors and wargaming.
The Munitionsschlepper, a German term meaning "ammunition tractor," was a type of armored vehicle used during World War II to transport munitions to front-line troops. It played a crucial logistical role in resupplying artillery units and ensuring that ammunition reached the battlefield under hostile conditions. These vehicles were often based on converted tank chassis, such as the Panzer I or II, with their turrets removed to provide more cargo space. The Munitionsschlepper was lightly armored, offering some protection to the crew and cargo from small arms fire and shrapnel, but its primary purpose was not combat. Instead, it was a vital component in maintaining the fighting capability of German forces by ensuring a steady supply of ammunition to field units during prolonged engagements.
