Panzer Tracts No.15-1: leichter Schützenpanzerwagen (Sd.Kfz.250) Ausf.A & B provides an exhaustive account of the development and production of the leichter Schützenpanzerwagen (Sd.Kfz.250) half-tracks and variants.

Authors Hilary Louis Doyle and Thomas L. Jentz invested hundreds of hours travelling across the globe to meticulously examine and measure preserved examples. The team then used a CAD system to create accurate 1:1 scale drawings, which are presented at 1:35 scale, reflecting the manufacturing tolerances of the original assembly companies. This publication reveals the details of all twelve variants and dispels many myths.

In collaboration with Hilary Doyle, Panzerwrecks has expanded the book with additional pages and photographs. It is an essential resource for enthusiasts who seek precise information and detailed technical drawings of this crucial German military vehicle.
