The mittlerer Flammpanzerwagen (Sd. Kfz. 251/16) – an armoured flame thrower vehicle – was made on the C model beginning in January 1943 and later also on the D model. The flame-throwers are covered with tarpaulins in the case of the illustrated vehicle. Note the vent lines at the rear part of the superstructure. These were typical for this type.
