HWK 30 historical reference

The vehicle was proposed as a further development of the Ru 251 and primarily intended for export, particularly to Mexico. This variant inherited the same armor and armament from its predecessor, but featured an elongated hull and an additional support roller. The vehicle existed only in blueprints.
