ICM Henschel 33 D1 Kfz.72, WWII German Radio Communication Truck

Description

Germany began to modernise its army from 1933 and onwards. An important part of Wehrmacht motorisation was the manufacturing of three-axle 3-tonne trucks. One of the most popular was the Henschel 33, which was in production lines from 1934 to 1942. The modification D1 had a 6-cylinder petrol engine. Around 22,000 Henschel 33 trucks were produced and were widely used by all parts of the German army during World War II. Some truck chassis had special bodies. One of them was the Kfz.72 van body. These machines were used as transmitters and receivers for the powerful A/B mobile radio stations.
