ESCI 1/35 German Horse-Drawn Supply Wagon

Description:

This classic 1/35 scale kit from ESCI represents a German horse-drawn supply wagon (Hf.2 heavy field wagon)—a critical but often overlooked part of WWII logistics. Despite the mechanized image of the Wehrmacht, a large portion of German transport relied on horses throughout the war, especially on the Eastern Front.

The kit typically includes a detailed wooden-style wagon, harness equipment, and horses, allowing you to recreate realistic supply scenes behind the front lines. ESCI kits from this era are known for their straightforward construction and solid base detail, making them excellent for both beginners and experienced modelers looking to add weathering and upgrades.

While not as highly detailed as modern kits, this set offers strong diorama potential, especially when combined with infantry, artillery, or field kitchen scenes.
