This truck was capable of both personnel and light-artillery transport and featured unique 6x4 independent suspension with 4-wheel drive and was capable of speeds up to 70km\/h. In 1936, this truck had its horse-power improved from 55hp to 60hp with the development of the L2H431 version. This latter version underwent various improvements, particularly those allowing it to tow a 3.7mm PAK 35\/36 anti-tank gun. After this improvement, the L2H431 came to be known as the Protze, and could hold 1 driver and 5 artillery crew. From the start of WWII the Protze was employed as standard equipment in anti-tank artillery divisions and was actively deployed to battlefronts in France and Poland.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOverall length: 250mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEvery characteristic of this truck such as the low-profile bonnet, the chassis, the ammunition boxes and the crew seats on the rear part, as well as the spare wheel for the anti-tank gun has been realistically reproduced.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA 3.7cm Pak anti-tank gun and various accessories ar\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Tamiya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41335502241858,"sku":"35259","price":48.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0262\/3740\/3202\/files\/35259-000.jpg?v=1716943701","url":"https:\/\/stonemonkey.com.au\/products\/tamiya-35259-1-35-krupp-protze-with-3-7cm-pak","provider":"Stone Monkey","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
