actual name:SdKfz 234
main gun:1x50mm L/60 KwK 39/1
speed:85 km/h (53 mph)
armor:Fully enclosed turret. The turret front was protected by 30 mm armor set at an angle of 20° from the vertical. The sides and rear had 10 mm armor set at 25°, and the top plate was 10 mm armor. The gun mantlet was rounded and was 40 to 100 mm thick

but this is a WISH

And if your keyboard has no umlaut, it's spelled: Kuebelwagen.

Great vehicle for taking your board to the beach on a fine summer day but not so much for reeking havoc and marching across Europe...

Post by: Tec on March 05, 2010, 03:29:44 AM: The Puma would be a good edition but the Kuebelmajiggy is pointless, and if we're gonna have a pointless little German vehicle it should be this (http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/9695/nazibikers.jpg) or this (http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/7863/300pxbundesarchivbild10.jpg).

The Puma is cool. :rock
