Airfix 1/35 Scale German Light Tank Pz.Kpfw.35(t) Model Kit
Airfix German Light Tank Pz.Kpfw.35(t) The Panzerkampfwagen 35(t), commonly shortened to Panzer 35(t) or abbreviated as Pz.Kpfw. 35(t), was a Czechoslovakian light tank used mainly by Nazi Germany during WW2. A total of 434 were built; of these, the Germans seized 244 when they occupied Bohemia-Moravia in March 1939. In German service, it saw combat during the early years of World War II, notably the invasion of Poland the Battle of France and the invasion of the Soviet Union before being retired or sold off in 1942. It was used for the remainder of the war by other countries and as a training tank in Bulgaria into the 1950s. The fighting in Russia exposed the vehicle's unsuitability for cold weather operations and general unreliability. This weakness, in addition to their thin armour and inadequate firepower, resulted in the 6th Panzer Division being re-equipped with other more powerful German tanks on its withdrawal from Russia in April 1942.
