WWII Half-Tracks
German Sd. Kfz. 7 Halftrack
Half-Tracks Needed at Full Speed
Although the land war in Europe was dominated by the firepower of tanks, both the U.S. and Germany used lighter half-tracks to move troops, tow weapons and provide reconnaissance. As with almost every type of vehicle in WWII, the Germans had superiority in quality and numbers to start the war, but American know-how and ingenuity overcame this advantage by mid-war.
Sd. Kfz. 7 Designed by Krauss-Maffei, the 7-series half-tracks were used for a variety of purposes, both with and without armor. Powered by a Maybach 140 horsepower engine, it had a top speed of 25 mph. Serving in Normandy as a Panzer Division support vehicle, this non-armored, camouflaged and muddied Sd. Kfz. 7, carries a 4-barrell 2cm. flak battery for anti-aircraft support.
