About the Flammpanzerwagen:
The SdKfz 251/16, otherwise known as the Mittlerer Flammpanzerwagen, was certainly
one of the most and interesting and special members of the famous SdKfz 251
German halftrack family. This flame-throwing variant was basically built on
the chassis of the Ausf.C. It was armed with two 14mm projectors and a portable
flamethrower connected to a 10M hose, which were rare but very effective weapons.
Supplied by two tanks of flammable mixture with a total of 700L, these powerful
projectors could burst 80 fire shots with a maximum range of 32M. Starting from
January 1943, a total of 347 vehicles were produced. During WWII, these frightening
flamethrowers were employed mostly in Russia, Italy, Arnhem and France by the
German army.
