Mercedes Benz G3A Light Truck

The G3 was developed by Mercedes Benz in 1928 as a 1.5tonne capacity 6x4 truck and upgraded as the G3A a year later. The G3A was fitted with a six cylinder in-line petrol engine capable of producing 89hp. The G3A was supplied mainly to Luftwaffe and Wehrmacht units. The G3A was manufactured in a number of variants including the mobile observation post, command vehicle, tanker, repair vehicle, radio vehicle, signals vehicle and as a standard cargo truck (as depicted in this kit).
