The Sd.Kfz 232 Schwerer Panzerspähwagen (six wheels) carried a Fu.Ger.11 SE 100 medium-range and a Fu.Spr.Ger.A short-range radio. This model was very distinctive because of the heavy "bedspring" antenna over most of the hull. This antenna was supported by two insulated vertical connecting tubes at the back corners and an inverted U-shape tube construction on the turret sides with a central joint that allowed the turret its full 360° traverse.
Was produced from 1938 until 1943 when he was replaced by the better armed Sd.Kfz 234/2 Puma. But after being replaced in their frontline work continued to be very useful as they were reused as command vehicles with new radio equipment and antenna in more modern and compact canopy.
