Armament: MG + Flamethrowers

Notes: The SdKfz 251 halftrack was underpowered and difficult to steer, but it formed the backbone of the German mechanized infantry and armor support. It was adapted to a wide variety of roles over the course of the war. The 251/16 Flammpanzerwagen acted as a carriage for two flamethrowers.

Lightning War!
