During the World War II, the warring nations employed various military vehicles. The German Kubelwagen produced by Volkswagen was designed as a people's car at the command of Hitler in 1938 by Dr. Ferdinand Porsche. The make-up of the Kubelwagen was very simple as it looked as though it was constructed with steel plate just fastened together. This simple design aimed at increasing the number of production. The number of Kubelwagens produced during the War reached several thousands. These many Kubelwagens were greatly active in reconnaissance and liason. These energetic work in the backround by means of the Kubelwagens led many operations to success.
