Sd Kfz 223 Light Radio Armoured Car

The Sd Kfz 223 was a wireless car model of the Sd Kfz 222 Light Armoured Car. Introduced in 1938, it was specifically designed to carry long range radio equipment. The 223 had a smaller turret than the 222 mounting only a 7.62mm MG34 with a frame aerial around the hull. This aerial could be lowered to provide a lower silouette however it proved unsatisfactory and was later replaced by a vertical rod type as seen on the Sd Kfz 260.
