Topic: SdKfz 7


  
  NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Flakvierling

 Corgi CC60004 - Diecast Model SdKfz 7 Half-Track Afrikakorps, Tripoli, 1941: The Flying Mule
Mussolini's attempt to re-establish an African empire for Italy had, by late 1940, resulted in nearly total defeat at the hands of the British and the strong danger that Italy would be driven out of North Africa.
A contingent of light, medium and heavy half-tracks were all sent over in order to move both men and artillery over the vast distances, particularly as the more eastern Libyan ports were too shallow for large freighters, leaving large gaps between the west and the fronts along the east of the country.
The Sdkfz 7 was particularly useful in the movement of personnel as well as field and flak guns, which were finding a lot of success as an antitank battery.
