The SdKfz 10 was a German half-track that saw very widespread use in World War II. Its main role was as a prime mover for small towed guns such as the 20mm Flak 38, the 75 mm light infantry gun, or the 50 mm Pak 38 antitank gun. It could carry eight troops in addition to towing a gun. Approximately 17,000 were produced between 1937 and 1944, making it one of the most widely-produced German tactical vehicles of the war. The chassis formed the basis for the SdKfz 250. Variants included self-propelled 20 mm mounts and field-expedient 50 mm PAK mounts.

Development of the vehicle was begun in 1932 by Demag, with the first prototype being ready in 1934. Full production started in 1937 and continued until 1944.
