Dragon Armor 1/72 German Sd.Kfz.165 Hummel Late Production (60189)

The Hummel ("Bumble Bee") was originally produced as a German interim solution for a self-propelled gun platform. However this howitzer which is mounted on a lengthened Pz.Kpfw.IV chassis, served throughout WWII after its introduction in early 1943 at the battle of Kursk. In 1944 the Hummel was modified with an extended glacis plate that accommodated both driver and radio operator - the earlier model only had a small extended compartment for the driver. Dragon latest superb 60189 Hummel Late Production has incorporated all the typical details of this howitzer and its 15cm sFH18/1 L/70. It represents a specific Hummel from 4.Pz.Div. operating in Eastern Front in 1944. With its 15cm sFH18/1 L/70 gun, it is a must for those who need fire support vehicles for their Dragon Army.
