Afrika Korps HQ
German officers were capable and often experienced leaders. Junior officerswere trained to undertake the role of their immediate superiors, enabling themto use their initiative to take control of situations when necessary. The AfrikaKorps (DAK) proved this through consistent victories as well as elusiveness inretreat.
Afrika Korps Medium Machine Gun
The Germans were equipped with two excellent machine guns in the MG34 andrapid-firing MG42 – known to Allied troops as ‘Hitler's Buzz Saw’because of its distinctive noise, or ‘Spandau’. Unlike other armies, theGermans used the same machine gun both as a squad weapon from its bipod and as atripod-mounted support weapon. The tripod mounted provided a much more stablefiring platform and made it easier to keep up a sustained fire using abelt feed.
Afrika Korps Medium Mortar
The standard German medium mortar of the war was the 80mm Granatwerfer34. It was a very effective and accurate weapon that could provide longerrange, on-call fire support. It had a maximum range of 2,400 metres and couldmaintain a rate of fire of 15–20 rounds per minute. It was carried by its crewin three pieces: a base plate, tube and bipod.
The models come supplied unpainted and unassembled, contents may varyfrom the box image.
