Sd.Kfz.234/2 PUMA

The Puma belonged to a whole family of 8-wheeled vehicles that was developed by the Germans towards the end of the Second World War. This pioneering project became the model for many wheeled tanks all around the world. In total just 100 vehicles were delivered by Puma, so little has survived to tell us about possible painting and markings. This vehicle with a speed approaching 90 kph was very good across country although it weighed almost 12 tonnes. The 5cm L/60 gun was known from and tried and tested in the Panzer III and it could carry 55 rounds of ammunition. This vehicle, built by Büssing-NAG, was equipped with an air-cooled 12-cylinder Tatra diesel engine that had a 210 horsepower output. In case of emergencies this vehicle came ready equipped with smoke dischargers to allow it to disappear from the enemy's view
