Dragon 6788 Sd.Kfz.3a Maultier Half Track mit 3.7cm Flak 37 1/35 is an exceptional plastic model kit, perfectly replicating the German semi-tracked transport vehicle Sd.Kfz.3a “Maultier” equipped with the anti-aircraft gun 3.7cm Flak 37. The model is produced in the popular 1/35 scale, which allows for reproduction of the finest details and realistic display on military dioramas or model layouts.

The Maultier, created as a response to the Wehrmacht’s problems with muddy and unpaved roads on the Eastern Front, was developed in the years 1942–1945 during World War II. It was a modification of the standard Opel Blitz truck, which was fitted with a half-track chassis, significantly improving its off-road capabilities. The version shown, with the mounted 3.7cm Flak 37 gun, was intended to provide anti-aircraft support for convoys and rear units, but it was also sometimes used against ground targets. The Sd.Kfz.3a "Maultier" was mainly used by Germany during operations on the Eastern Front in World War II.
