The containers had windows, doors, and ramp in the stern section, which made it possible to transport military equipment inside if necessary, such as guns or light vehicles.

The intensity and complexity of these assaults were evidenced by areas changing hands multiple times.

However, the later Boulogne Protocol allowed the Weimar Republic to have a limited number of armored transport vehicles and police armored cars. After Hitler came to power, Germany began preparations for a war that, according to German plans, was to be fought swiftly. This concept required high mobility for military units, which in turn demanded a large number of various vehicles—both regular trucks and armored vehicles. Serial production of armored cars in Germany resumed in 1934, and by 1936, they were standard equipment in reconnaissance units (which included the Sd.Kfz. 247 Ausf.B armored car). At the beginning of the hostilities, the armored vehicle fleet was supplemented with captured vehicles, including one of the best armored cars of World War II, the Panhard 178 (designated Panzerspähwagen P 204(f) in the Wehrmacht). The German army also widely used semi-tracked armored transporters. The versatility built into their design allowed these armored vehicles to be used for transporting personnel as well as for mounting various types of weapons or equipment.

At the beginning of 1943, production of the Pz.Kpfw V Panther tank with a 75-mm long-barreled 7.5 cm KwK42 L\/70 gun began. The weight of this tank, depending on the modification, ranged from 43 to 45.5 tons. This tank was classified as both medium and heavy based on various criteria. Many military historians consider it one of the best tanks of World War II. The Pz.Kpfw V also served as the basis for the Jagdpanther tank destroyer and the Bergepanther recovery vehicle. In the winter of 1944, production of another tank, the Pz.Kpfw VI Ausf B Konigstiger, developed by Henschel under the leadership of E. Aders, began. This tank had heavy armor and a long-barreled 88-mm gun. Its armor-piercing shell was capable of hitting any Allied tank at a distance of 2000 meters or more.

During combat missions, American bombers faced significant threats from German anti-aircraft guns, collectively known as Flak. As they approached their bombing targets, crews often had to break through waves of anti-aircraft fire. According to American pilots, many of their planes seemed to attract large amounts of shells fired by the Flak guns. Based on this, Lieutenant Farrell, a crew member of bomber 41-31773, coined a nickname for their plane – ‘Flak-Bait’. This name was a playful adaptation of the nickname of the Farrell family’s dog, who supposedly attracted hordes of fleas and was called ‘Flea Bait’. The plane oddly began to live up to its name, receiving hits from anti-aircraft shells in almost every mission. Every control surface was replaced at least once, and the hydraulic and electrical systems sustained damage. Twice, the plane returned with only one functioning engine.

The car replaced the well-known Ford Model T, which had been produced for 18 years. The Model A was equipped with a 4-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a displacement of 3.28 liters and a power output of 40 horsepower. The fuel tank was located between the engine compartment and the instrument panel and had an optical fuel gauge. Fuel was gravity-fed to the carburetor. Buyers were offered a wide range of various modifications, with different body types to choose from: coupe, cabriolet, sedan, phaeton, roadster, pickup, and others. Prices for the Ford A ranged from $385 to $1,400 (the most expensive being the Town Car variant). Production of the Ford Model A ended in 1931, with a total of 4 849 340 Ford A cars produced in all variants.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ICM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40771255730211,"sku":"ICM24051","price":89.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0036\/2115\/8947\/files\/icm-1-24-modela-standard-phaeton-1930s-plastic-model-kit-24051-1167692273.jpg?v=1750736645"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0036\/2115\/8947\/collections\/icm-840333.jpg?v=1747467475","url":"https:\/\/hobbytechtoys.com.au\/collections\/icm.oembed?page=6","provider":"Hobbytech Toys","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
