Tamiya 35259 - 1/35 Krupp Protze 1t Kfz.69 with 3.7cm Pak Military Model Kit - Precision Military Scale Kit  [35259]

Detailed scale study of the Krupp Protze Kfz.69

The Krupp Protze Kfz.69 earned its place in wartime logistics as a sturdy artillery tractor, notable for towing light anti tank guns. This Tamiya kit reproduces the vehicle in 1/35 scale, giving modellers a faithful platform to explore the machine's layout and field roles.

Origins and frontline service

First developed in the early 1930s, the Protze used an air cooled flat four engine that allowed road speeds around 70 km/h and reliable cross country movement. Its capability made it a common choice for hauling the 3.7cm Pak 35/36, and by 1936 upgrades further improved its power and service range across multiple campaigns.

Modeling Appeal and Display Value

This Tamiya release emphasises accurate form and clean moulding, making it rewarding for builders who focus on historical detail. The kit breaks down key elements of the original chassis and towing equipment, so finished builds display well in dioramas or on a shelf.
