Great little model, but my first thought was surely not used by Afrika Korps. The Western Desert was long range A/T vs armour, howitzer artillery, air/ground attack. A flamethrower is a close quarter weapon for fighting in built up areas, clearing fortifications, or close range NW Europe rural combat. At least I did think that, until I read about use in Tobruk. Great to see something different and imaginative as a modelling subject. Good find as always |

As a note they were all made using the Pz 1 Ausf A , so BF's model using the Pz 1 Ausf B is wrong . |

He says he used the AusfA. I am totally an ignoramus at this but, as far as I do recall from the 1970s, was not the only distinguishing feature a sloped engine deck on the A and a flat engine deck on the B? |

That is a B then. Five road wheels, not four, and the horizontal top to the engine compartment |
