Tamiya 1/35 35105 German Horch 1a with 20mm AA Gun
The Horch 1a was a standard heavy passenger or personnel carrier of the Wehrmacht and had resulted from the programme instituted in the mid 1930s to provide the Wehrmacht with a range of vehicles on a standardised type of chassis. The 'heavy' category was reserved for cars of 3000cc engine capacity or over. Horch/Auto-Union were main builders in Germany of cars in this category, and the production period of the Horch 1a was 1937-40, though the vehicles remained in service throughout WW2.
