Germany began to build the modern army after 1933. The important part of Wehrmacht motorization was the manufacturing of three-axle 3-t trucks. The most numerous of them was Henschel, 33. It was in production lines from 1934 to 1942. The modification D1 had a 6-cyl. petrol engine.

All in all, there were about 22,000 Henschel 33.

Some chassis had special bodies. One of them was the Kfz.72 van body. These machines were used as transmitters and receivers in the powerful A/B mobile radio stations.
