The Vidalwagen Street V-2 Transporter in 1/72 scale by Special Hobby depicts a specialized German trailer developed for transporting V-2 ballistic missiles on roads. This transporter played a key role in the operations of the German missile units, as it allowed for the safe and efficient movement of missiles between depots, assembly stations and launch sites.
The Vidalwagen trailer was designed to enable the handling of heavy and bulky rockets in the field. The V-2 missiles were transported by towing behind specially modified tractors, such as the SS-100 Gigant, and then placed on mobile launch pads. This system allowed the Wehrmacht the flexibility to deploy these advanced weapons, which were used primarily in the attacks on London and Antwerp in 1944-1945.
The 1/72 scale model provides precise details of the transport structure, chassis and towing gear, making it faithful to the historical original. Ideal for modellers with an interest in German rocketry and WWII logistics.
Package does not include paint or glue needed for assembly.
