Tactics

  • The Scout Car is the Panzer Elite's way of securing resources.
  • The Scout Car can capture command points.
  • Scouts Cars are lightly armored, and can fall quickly to small arms fire.
  • The Scout Car is good in early game, since it can quickly capture and secure resources, and it has A MG42 which deals massive damage against infantry.


History

The SdKfz 221 Armoured Car was a common vehicle in reconnaissance patrols. Protected from small arms fire, and armed with a single light machine-gun, the SdKfz 221 was ill-suited for heavy combat. Its four-wheel design gave it poor off-road performance, which limited it to scouting roads and well-maintained trails. They were utilized by the Panzeraufklärungsabteilung (Mechanized Reconnaissance Battalion) of Panzer, and Panzergrenadier divisions as their main recon element. A patrol of one or two SdKfz 221 were led by a single SdKfz 223 radio-equipped armoured car.

The Scout Car in Company of Heroes is an SdKfz 221, with the option of changing into an SdKfz 223 by taking the Logistik upgrade.
