German Sd.Kfz.7 Semi-Track in 1/35 Scale

Recreate one of Germany’s best-known WWII semi-track vehicles with the Tamiya Sd.Kfz.7 plastic model assembly kit. This detailed 1/35 scale model captures the vehicle’s sturdy form and complex wheel arrangement, producing a finished model measuring 200mm in length.

The Sd.Kfz.7 served in numerous roles during WWII, transporting personnel and supplies, towing anti-aircraft pieces such as 20mm and 37mm guns, and assisting with the recovery of stricken armour. It was also widely associated with towing the German 8.8cm anti-tank gun, making the vehicle a versatile subject for transport, artillery and support scenes.

Detailed Vehicle Features

Tamiya recreates the distinctive semi-track layout with careful attention to the complicated placement of its wheels. The front wheels are steerable, allowing their angle to be adjusted for a more natural appearance in the completed display.

The driver’s position includes instrumentation and pedals, adding visible interior interest to the model. Builders can also choose to assemble the canvas hood in either the raised or lowered position, providing two distinct presentation options for the finished vehicle.
