Historical background

The Pz.Kpfw. I Ausf.A light tank was one of the first mass-produced German tanks, which played a significant role during the preparations for World War II and in its early campaigns – in Spain, Poland, and France. Although lightly armored and armed (with MG13 machine guns), it was an important training and reconnaissance tool for the German armored cavalry. Experience gained operating the PzKpfw I greatly influenced the development of subsequent Wehrmacht tank types.

Recommendation and difficulty

The Aber 35065 product will impress all experienced modelers who wish to take their builds to the next level of realism – both for constructing historical dioramas from the early stages of World War II and for standalone model presentations.
