Attack 72869 Flammpanzer PzKpfw I Ausf. A (1/72)

The Attack 72869 Flammpanzer PzKpfw I Ausf. A model in 1/72 scale is a detailed plastic model kit that replicates a rarely seen version of the German light tank adapted for combat using a flamethrower. The Flammpanzer I Ausf. A was a vehicle used by the Wehrmacht in the early stages of World War II, mainly during operations on the Eastern Front and in the North African campaign.

Based on the popular PzKpfw I Ausf. A tank, this model depicts the modification in which the machine guns were replaced with a flamethrower. This variant was developed by Germany after the experience of the Spanish Civil War and the need to fight enemy fortifications and strongpoints. The Flammpanzers appeared on the battlefield between 1940 and 1943 during World War II, earning a reputation as formidable but vulnerable vehicles due to their need to get close to the target.

The Attack 72869 model is made from high-quality plastic, ensuring precise details and ease of processing. The set includes parts to reproduce the characteristic silhouette of the flamethrower tank – featuring the modified turret with the flamethrower and appropriate hull details. The manufacturer did not include glue or paints in the kit, so it is recommended to acquire them separately.
