Experience the formidable firepower of the SdKfz 251 Ausf D equipped with the devastating Wurfrahmen 40 ("launch frame 40"). This German WWII multiple rocket launcher, mounted on the versatile SdKfz 251 halftrack, earned nicknames like "Stuka zu Fuss" ("Walking Stuka") and "Heulende Kuh" ("Bellowing Cow") for its fearsome capabilities on the battlefield.

Introduced in late 1940, the Wurfrahmen 40 featured a framework with adjustable base plates capable of firing 300 mm high explosive (HE) rockets, alongside 280 mm HE and 320 mm incendiary rockets from their loading crates. While not as precise as conventional artillery, these spin-stabilized rockets were ripple-fired in rapid succession to saturate enemy positions quickly.

This detailed plastic kit faithfully recreates the SdKfz 251 Ausf D with the detachable Wurfrahmen 40 frame, offering enthusiasts the ability to assemble both the rocket launcher variant and revert it to the standard SdKfz 251/1D personnel carrier configuration. Ideal for historical model enthusiasts and collectors, this kit showcases the technological innovation and tactical effectiveness of German mobile artillery during World War II.
