Hobby Boss 1/35 German Panzer 1 Ausf A Sd.Kfz.101 (Early/Late Version) Kit

After the end of World War I, Germany was not allowed to produce any armored machinery besides the minimum of armored cars for the army and police. The Panzerkampfwagen I Ausf.A (Sd.Kfz.101) was the first German tank to go into mass production since World War I. Both 7.92mm MG13 machine-guns were mounted coaxially in the turret. The first complete Pz.Kpfw.IA was issued in September 1934. At the beginning of World War II, the  Pz.Kpfw.IA was scattered throughout all the Panzer units. It was used extensively in Poland and France and was issued to Pz-Abt40 which took part in the invasion ofDenmarkandNorway. From late 1940 until 1941, the Pz.Kpfw.IA was withdrawn from units in the main combat areas.
