35015 - Bronco - 1/35 Land-Wasser Schlepper 

(*Small Damage Box)

The Land-Wasser-Schlepper was a Rheinmetall designed amphibious tractor built for Operation Sea Lion, the planned invasion of Britain, meant to tow assault barges and haul supplies straight up a beach. It looked like a boat hull with tank tracks and a wheelhouse on top, and it worked well enough on water and on land, but the invasion never happened. A small number saw service instead on the Eastern Front and in the Netherlands, mostly for river crossings and engineering work.
