The Bronco Models 1/35 German sWS Half-track with 2cm Flakvierling 38 (CB35213) is a highly detailed plastic model kit from Bronco Models, a Hong Kong–based manufacturer renowned for exceptional historical accuracy and fine surface detail.
The sWS (schwerer Wehrmachtsschlepper – heavy military tractor) was a German heavy half-track designed for logistics, artillery towing, and special weapons mounting. The variant armed with the 2cm Flakvierling 38 (quadruple 20mm anti-aircraft gun) provided German ground units with mobile, concentrated short-range air defence. The Flakvierling 38 fired at a combined rate of around 800 rounds per minute from its four barrels, making it lethal against low-flying Allied fighter-bombers that increasingly dominated the battlefield from 1943 onward.
