SdKfz. 251 is a half-track vehicle that appears in Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines. It appears in various missions as an enemy vehicle and a playable vehicle once if the Driver is present. It has a machine gun turret that can be fire.
It reappears again in Commandos 3: Destination Berlin except with a manned machine gun emplacement rather than a built-in turret.
It makes another apperance in Commandos: Strike Force, where in addition to a manned Machine Gun, it can carry and drop off enemy troops.
Strategy[]
When dealing with an SDKfz, how exactly you fight it depends on the game, in C1, you'll need to use explosives to blow it up, in C3 it can be blown up with gunfire (it takes a long time so you'll need to do this out of the machine gun's vision) while in Strike Force, you can snipe the Gunner (Who'll likely be replaced a few times as the battle goes on.) or blow it up with explosives. (such as a Panzerfaust or several Grenades.)
Trivia[]

- This vehicle also appears in Commandos: Beyond the Call of Duty with the mission pack add-on. However, it has three variants rather than one.
- In the mod mission pack add-on mission "Panzerzug", the SdKfz does not have a built-in machine gun turret which only used as a troop transport.
