The Dragon 6862 Sd.Kfz. 251/21 Ausf. D "Drilling" 1/35 scale plastic model kit is a faithful miniature of the German half-track armored personnel carrier used by the Wehrmacht during World War II. The 21 Ausf. D version, known as the "Drilling," was armed with a triple anti-aircraft MG 151/15 15mm or MG 151/20 20mm gun mount. The model allows you to recreate an icon of the late-war battles, especially on the Western and Eastern fronts in 1944-1945.

The Sd.Kfz. 251 version 21 transporter was developed in response to intense Allied air raids. Equipping it with a triple-barreled cannon significantly increased the anti-aircraft defense capability of Wehrmacht armored and mechanized units. These vehicles took part in the battles for the liberation of Normandy, the Battle of the Bulge, on the Italian front, as well as in the defense of the Third Reich during the final months of the war.
