    Information from the instruction booklet:
    The eight wheeled heavy armoured car Sd.Kfz 232 with a frame antenna carried a crew of four men. The commander and the gunner were in the turret, and other two men sat in the front and the rear driver seat. Because the turret carrying the 20 mm machine gun was too small for two men and, to make matter worse, the radio apparatus Fu-11 took up much space, they had great operational difficulty. Therefore the production of the Sd.Kfz 232 was discontinued in May 1940. The duty of the radio communication was gradually entrusted to the turretless armoured radio car Sd.Kdz 263.
    In actual fighting, the eight-wheeled heavy armoured cars excelled others in speed and cross-country ability, but their silhouette was too high and armour was too thin. To reinforce their armour, the Germans hastely added an armour plate of 10 mm thickness to the front of the body but the result was not quite satisfactory.
    Model depicts the vehicle from the French battle line.
