Cruel Seas: German Siebel Ferry w. Tiger Tank Load
This pack is for one Siebel Ferry model loaded with three 1:300th scale Heroics & Ros Tiger Tank models.
Dubbed the Kleine fähre (small ferry) the Siebel ferry would prove it's self a highly useful and adaptable vessel.
Aircraft designer Fritz Siebel (A commissioned a colonel in the Luftwaffe) had been assigned his own Sonderkommando (special command) for improvising Luftwaffe invasion craft for Operation Sea Lion.
Colonel Siebel's ferry used flat-bottomed pontoons that were squared off in front. In combination with the vessel’s wide cargo deck, this made for an exceptionally stable gun platform, capable of surviving even Force 6 waves.
In fact, the Luftwaffe mounted various-sized flak pieces on the ferries finding the 8.8 cm guns, in particular, well-adapted for this role.
The Luftwaffe continue producing Siebel ferries under its own Special Ferry Command (Fähre-Sonderkommando). Configured to serve a variety of special purposes, from minelaying to convoy escort, most would see action transporting troops, vehicles and supplies.
The ship card supplied with this model will be the same as that supplied with the Cruel Seas: German Siebel Ferry model. This model is designed to be an optional alternative version of this ship for in-game purposes.
Models supplied unassembled and unpainted
