I'll start with this

The Sd. Kfz 250 was adopted in 1939 to supplement the standard half-track. Production delays meant that the first vehicle did not appear until mid-1941

So May 1940 in France is way wrong.

IDK which " tank Encyclopedia you are looking at but this one
https://tanks-encyclopedia.com/ww2/n.../sdkfz-250.php
says production did not start until mid 1941

And mid-1941 was only the FIRST vehicle. 1/42 was given BECAUSE by then there were enough in service to justify being there. 20 years ago we had it in 6/41. In 2010 it was changed to 1/42 so there would have been a good reason for that but, I don't keep a detailed record of every change but it would not have been made on a whim.

The bottom line is sometime between mid 1941 and the start of 1942 they started being used on the front and we pushed it back to 1/42 because there we too few to count until then as that was pre-series testing

The rest I will look at before the next release.....whenever that might be
