Takom 1/35 V-2 Rocket Vidalwagen Hanomag SS100 Plastic Model Kit [2110]

Overview

Designed by Otto Daus in the Tempo-works at Vidal & Sohn Co., the Vidalwagen was a strong and lightweight transport trailer, easily supporting the weight of the empty V2 rocket. The Vidalwagen was used by the Germans to transport the V2 from the railhead to the field stores depot and to the transloading point, where the weapon was hoisted onto the Meillerwagen (Takom No.2030) for transport to the launch site.

The Wehrmacht heavy tractor multi-purpose vehicle Hanomag SS-100 was produced from 1936 to 1945. Originally manufactured in 1936 as the SP-100 heavy agriculture tractors, it was quickly pressed into military service with both the Wehrmacht and the Luftwaffe, and became one of the most widely used heavy tractors in German military service. Powered by a 8550 cc 6-cylinder D85 diesel engine, it could accommodate up to five passengers and driver and supported a variety of supplement attached equipment attached to the rear frame. Among other things, V2 units used it to tow the Vidalwagen & Meillerwagen, ately 12" long.
