The infantry transporter Kfz.70 was one variant of the army vehicle Horch 108 Typ 40. This heavy off-road vehicle was produced by Horch and the German branch of Ford until 1942. Serving as a multifunctional military transport for the Wehrmacht, the vehicle performed a wide range of tasks across various theaters of combat, from France to Stalingrad and from North Africa to Scandinavia. Some of these vehicles could be equipped with different types of armaments, including anti-aircraft guns, Zwillingssockel 36 twin-mount anti-aircraft machine gun installations, or MG 34 machine guns. Vehicles equipped in such a manner were used for anti-aircraft defense, providing fire support, patrolling, and escorting transport convoys.
