With a 4-cylinder gasoline engine capable of 25hp, the Schwimmwagen featured the 80km\/h top speed on ground. The rear three-bladed screw propeller was lowered manually using a rod and provided water speed up to 10km\/h. While paucity of materials meant many Schwimmwagen used 133mm tires, those with wider 200mm tires enjoyed superior off-road performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e1\/35 scale plastic model assembly kit. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eLength: 113mm, width: 42mm.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures realistic depictions of suspension and 4-cylinder gasoline engine.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNewly molded C parts realistically recreate the following features: 200mm wide tyres (Tyres are split into pieces to recreate tyre patterns.), wheels, MG34 machine gun, Panzerfaust 30 (anti-tank weapon) and Kar.98k rifle fixed to crossbar, windshield with or without cover, and other equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition canteens and helmet as you wish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo new figures (one driver and one officer) are included.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDecals depict four German Army and two German Air Force number plates, and badges of cap, sleeve and collar.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlastic model assembly kit.
