1/35 Soviet 122mm Howitzer M-30

Description

Description

This is an injection-plastic military vehicle model kit.

From the manufacturer description:

The 122mm howitzer M1938 (M-30) was introduced into the Soviet Army shortly before World War II to replace the obsolescent World War I models. After the war the M1938 became the standard divisional howitzer of the other Warsaw Pact armies. It also was sold to armies in other parts of the world. The M1938 is mounted on a box section. The recoil system consists of a hydraulic buffer above the tube, and a hydropneumatic recuperator below it. The breechlock is a hinged screw type. Care must be taken to distinguish the M1938 from the 152mm howitzer M1943 (D-1), which uses the same basic carriage.

Molded in gray plastic; includes photo-etch parts, soft tires and a metal gun barrel.
