1/72 Captured Bedford MW in German Service
IBG 1/72 Captured Bedford MW in German Service is a kit of the British light truck Bedford MW captured and subsequently used by the German armed forces during World War II. The 1/72 scale model offers an unusual model depicting the use of captured equipment by the Wehrmacht in field conditions.
The Bedford MW was one of the most widely used light trucks of the British Army during World War II and was primarily used to transport material, ammunition and personnel. Following the defeats of the Allied armies in Western Europe, a significant number of these vehicles fell into the hands of the Germans, who often incorporated them into their own service as loot equipment. Due to its simple design and reliability, the Bedford MW was used in a variety of roles, from supply to auxiliary and rear area duties.
This 1/72 scale IBG kit depicts the Bedford MW in German service, including typical modifications and markings used by the Wehrmacht. The model offers detailed treatment of the chassis, cab and cargo hull, and is an interesting alternative to conventional German vehicles. It is suitable both as a stand-alone model and as part of dioramas depicting logistics, unit facilities or the use of captured equipment on the battlefields of World War II. Thanks to its subject matter, it will appeal especially to modellers interested in less common but historically very authentic models.
The package does not include the paint or glue needed for assembly.
