First to Fight PL041 Nr 41 Ciągnik niemiecki Sd.Kfz 11

Sd.Kfz. 11 (it. Sonderkraftfahrzeug 11) was a German light half-track transporter from the Second World War. The first prototypes were built in 1934, and serial production continued in the years 1938-1945, ending with the production of about 8,800 copies of this vehicle. The drive was provided by a single motor Maybach NL 38 or Maybach HL42 TUKRM with 100 HP. Sd.Kfz. 11 did not have fixed armament as standard.

Sd.Kfz. 11 was designed at the Hanomag and Borgward plants as a light artillery tractor. During the service of Sd.Kfz. 11 was most often used to tow light anti-aircraft guns (Flak 36 or Flak 37), anti-tank guns (PAK 40) or light howitzers (e.g. the 105mm leFH18). Based on the basic version of the Sd.Kfz. 11, several specialized versions were created. One of them was Sd.Kfz. 11/1, which served as a Nebelwerfer missile launcher tractor and a rocket carrier. Another was Sd.Kfz. 11/2, which acted as a transporter of chemicals. Sd.Kfz cars. 11 were used on all fronts of World War II in 1939-1945.
