The Panzerspahwagen Sd. Kfz. 232, known for its large frame antenna, was an eight wheeled armored car used by the German Army in every theater of operations during WWII. Primarily used by Reconnaissance Squadrons, the Sd. Kfz. 232 was used for the traditional cavalry missions of reconnaissance and screening. These vehicles and their crews would scout ahead of mechanized units to find enemy locations, and then report their findings back to the friendly units behind them. Their primary task was to observe and report rather than to fight, although they were expected to fight enemy reconnaissance elements when required.<\/span><\/p>\n
