Trumpeter 1/35 German Flakpanzer IV Ostwind - Construction Summary

This Trumpeter 1/35 model of the German Flakpanzer IV Ostwind is a detailed scale kit representing the late war anti-aircraft tank based on the Panzer IV chassis. It faithfully models the single 3.7cm Flak 43 and the Ostwind's distinctive multi-faceted turret.

Historical Notes and Modelling Value

The Ostwind was introduced to strengthen Luftabwehr on the move. The kit recreates the turret geometry and gun position, letting builders recreate a convincing representation of this specialised vehicle.

Build Characteristics

At 854 parts the kit provides a challenging project for experienced modellers. Included photo-etched parts offer fine surface detail and precise assembly is required to fit the complex elements. The kit supports finishing in the dark yellow, red brown and green camouflage pattern as shown in the decals.
