BRONCO PANZERKAMPFWAGEN II (FLAMM) AUSF. E
Bronco will be releasing a new
Bronco will be releasing a new
Flammpanzer III Ausf. E kit.
The Pz.Kpfw.II was a light
reconnaissance tank built in
several versions from 1934 to
1944.
The Pz.Kpfw.II Ausf D was
a departure from the original
design and was fitted with a
new torsion bar suspension
with four large road wheels.
It was powered by a Maybach
HL62TRM engine giving a
road speed of 55 km/h. It
was built by MAN from 1938
to 1939 in its original form.
It saw action in the Poland
Campaign of 1939, However
it was not judged a success
and the type was withdrawn
from service in 1940. The hulls
were used for the Pz.Kpfw.II
Flammpanzer and fitted with
a new smaller MG-34 machine
gun turret. Its main armament
were two remote control flame
throwers mounted on the front
track guards, these being
supplied by a 320 litre fuel
tank. The nitrogen propellant
being housed in armoured bins
along the sides of the hull.
along the sides of the hull. The
armour was a maximum of
30mm and the combat weight
was 12 tons. A total of 155
tanks were converted from
January 1940 to March 1941
The Pz.Kpfw.II Flammpanzer,
also called the Flamingo, was
built in two models the Ausf
A and Ausf B based on the
PzKpfw.II Ausf D and Ausf E.
respectively. The Ausf E had a
different lubricated track. but
only seven were converted.
Flammpanzers saw action
on the Russian front during
Operation Barbarossa in
1941, but again their combat
performance was very
disappointing. Their armour
was considered too thin for
the assault role for which
they were being used. They
were withdrawn from combat
in December 1941 and the
hulls used for Marder II tank
destroyer construction,
Information and research by
Phil Greenwood.
Thanks to Bronco for the
information and images.
