Product Description
[About actual vehicle]
- The self-propelled artillery that the German Army built with the 15 cm howitzer on the III / IV car stand in the Second World War is the Hummel self-propelled gun.
- The chassis employs a self-propelled gun chassis called III / IV car, which carries the same transmission as the III tank on the body of F type IV tank. The engine was mounted in the center of the car body.
- Make an open top fighting room there and equip sFH 18 heavy grenade cannon. It was completed in 1943, and he played an active part in each front line until the end of the war with Kursk war.
- A 15-cm heavy-howling cannon of 30 caliber, the maximum range of sFH 18 boasted 13000 m.
- Sometimes we used shells of different type of charge and ammunition, the number of passengers is six more than usual, and since there are only 18 people on board, and we are using the same chassis to carry ammunition Car was also made and beating heart.
- The body has the former production type and the late production type, which is characterized by the design of the driver part at the front of the body and the design of the compartment part for the correspondent are different.
- By the end of the war more than 700 batches were produced and fought at the battlefront of each region.
[About the model]
- The model is a 1/35 scale plastic model assembly kit that reproduces German military self-propelled artillery, Sd.Kfz.165 Hummel which was active in World War II.
- This kit is a 2 in 1 kit which can be assembled by choosing either Hummel's initial production type or late production type.
- To reproduce the difference, the upper part of the car body and the sprocket wheel etc. have set both the former part and the latter part.
- The lower part of the car body is integrally molded using a slide mold. It is accurately reproduced to the detail on the lower side, enhances realism with realistic expressions such as roller tracks and running wheels.
- We adopt a belt type DS track which is easy to assemble for crawler belts.
- The battlefield built on it is a mechanical finish with the main gun 's 15 cm howitzer.
- You can not miss the recoil system reproduced with the slide mold, the gun cradle mount, and detail of the closure device.
- Aluminum parts are prepared for gun barrels to further increase the feeling.
- In addition, the battle chamber armor plate expresses its thickness sufficiently in scale. It produces a sharp finish with a thinness.
- Inside the fighting room surrounded by the armor plate is a set of shells, various racks and equipment. I am looking forward to a fulfilling modeling unique to self-propelled guns with open top fighting rooms.
- In addition, etching parts that enhance the details of each part are also set.
- I can not miss that Box Art uses illustrations by Mr. Ron Bolstadt.
