Panzerspähwagen (Funk) P204(f), Armoured Command Vehicle

The Panzerspähwagen (Funk) P204(f) was a German command radio-equipped armored car based on the captured French Panhard 178. Command variants of the P204(f) used FuG 10 or FuG 11 radios, and the large Hochantenne (elevated) frame antenna, with some vehicles also fitted with a right-side telescopic mast. The Germans converted the P204(f) into a Funk vehicle by removing the APX3 turret and installing a fixed or open-topped armored box.

Panhard was a major French designer of armored cars, known for reliable and fast vehicles like the AMD 35 and later AML series. The 178 was one of the most advanced pre-war designs, so when Germany captured over 400 of them in 1940, they quickly put them to work in reconnaissance and security roles. The Germans redesignated it as the P204(f) and found its roomy hull ideal for converting into a communications and command vehicle.
