About The Subject

The Neubaufahrzeug ("new construction vehicle") was a rare, multi-turreted German tank produced in very small numbers before WWII. Only five were built, with three armoured-steel examples seeing service during the 1940 invasion of Norway with Panzer Abteilung z.b.V. 40. Although largely a propaganda piece and later considered a white elephant, the type holds a unique place in the evolution of German armoured warfare.

Dragon’s treatment of this subject focuses on accuracy and build quality, allowing enthusiasts to recreate the unusual triple-turret layout and twin main-gun arrangement of the Nr.2. The Dragon Neubau-Fahrzeug Nr2 kit, part number HC-D6968, is an excellent choice for modellers interested in rare German AFVs and distinctive pre-war tank designs.

One of the rarer tanks to see service with the Wehrmacht in WWII was the Neubaufahrzeug, which is German for “New Construction Vehicle”. Just five of these heavy and cumbersome medium tanks were produced, each of which featured three turrets. The tanks’ primary use was in propaganda, although three constructed out of armored steel did participate in the invasion of Norway in 1940 with Panzer Abteilung z.b.V. 40. Dragon are now offering a sublime 1/35 scale plastic kit of Neubaufahrzeug Nr.2, which features the rounded Rheinmetall-Borsig turret with vertical gun mount. The model features all the correct parts for this developmental tank, including the three turrets and their armaments. The main turret correctly features the 7.5cm KwK L/24 and 3.7cm KwK L/45 guns mounted one above the other. These turrets can rotate, plus there is a selection of photo-etched parts available to add a touch of finesse. The kit is beautifully engineered, allowing modelers to recreate this rare “white elephant” tank that holds a unique place in the history of German armored warfare.
