Revell 03036 SpPz 2 Luchs A1/A2 (1/35) – plastic model kit

The Revell 03036 SpPz 2 Luchs A1/A2 plastic model kit in 1/35 scale is a faithful replica of the German wheeled reconnaissance vehicle used by the Bundeswehr. The SpPz 2 Luchs (Spähpanzer 2 Luchs) was developed in the 1970s as the successor to the Sd.Kfz. 234 vehicles and was one of the most advanced armored reconnaissance solutions of the Cold War era. Manufactured by Thyssen-Henschel and used by the West German armed forces (FRG), the Luchs model served in Bundeswehr armored units from 1975 until the early 21st century.

The vehicle participated not only in NATO exercises throughout Western Europe but was also deployed in peacekeeping missions, for example during operations in Bosnia and Herzegovina and in Kosovo as part of KFOR forces. The A1 and A2 versions differed mainly in weaponry systems and electronic equipment, which have been accurately reproduced in the Revell kit.

The kit is made of high-quality plastic, which guarantees detailed features and durability. Inside the box, you'll find over 250 parts allowing you to build both the A1 and A2 versions—including precisely rendered equipment, suspension system, turret with gun, and optional details characteristic for each variant.
