Sd. Kfz. 304

diaľkovo riadené demoličné vozidlo
mittlerer Ladungsträger "Springer" (Sd.Kfz.304)


Demolition vehicle in the manner of Goliath and B IV. It was radio-controlled on target up to a range of 2000 m. It used parts from a Kleine Kettenkraftrad Sd.Kfz.2 half-track motorcycle. The machine was loaded with 330 kg of explosives. As of 15 September 1943, 16 units were to be produced to be used for tests with combat troops. Following the rationalization of weapons production, it was decided that this type would replace the similar type of demolition vehicle Borgward B IVc in production from 1.5.1945. Production of Borgwards was reduced and production of Springers was slowly ramped up. In 10/1944 9 units were produced, in 11/1944 - 16 units, in 12/1944 - 10 units, in 1/1945 - 9 units and in 2/1945 - 6 units. Thus, a total of 50 pieces were produced. There are no reliable records as to whether it was assigned to any unit and was used in combat. However, it is possible that several pieces were delivered to Panzer Abteilung (Fkl) 301, 302, or 303.

Podle informací získaných v místním muzeu byla do továrny v průběhu války přesunuta část výroby firmy NSU z Neckarsulmu. Mělo zde být vyrobeno celkem 6 ks těchto vozidel. Kromě zmíněných strojů se v továrně vyráběly i další komponenty na německou techniku a tankové pásy.
