The Sd Kfz 221 is a four-wheel drive, light armoured car, with a crew of two, armed with a MG34 machine-gun. It was designed to meet operational requirements that included reliability, an ability to run on a variety of grades of fuel, simple construction, and good off-road performance. It entered production in 1935.
Before the war it was decided the Sd Kfz 221 was too lightly armed, so between 1936 and 1937 a new up-armed armoured car was designed. The new Sd Kfz 222 light armoured car (Leichter Panzerspähwagen) was armed with a 2cm KwK30 autocannon and one machine gun. The crew was increased to three by the addition of a gunner.
The mixed scout troops back up the Sd Kfz 221 with the Sd Kfz 222 armed with a 2cm KwK38 cannon and a co-axial MG34 machine-gun.
