    Product details

    Background & context

    Die BL 5.5-inch Medium Gun kam 1941 zur Truppe und schloss die Lücke zwischen der Feldartillerie und den ganz schweren Rohren. Eine zehnköpfige Bedienung brachte Granaten von 82 und später 100 Pfund auf Ziele weit hinter der gegnerischen Front. Ohne passendes Zugfahrzeug blieb das Geschütz allerdings stehen, und genau dafür gab es die AEC Matador: einen Allradschlepper mit Kastenaufbau, in dem Mannschaft und Munition gleich mitfuhren. Beide zusammen dienten von El Alamein bis nach Korea.

    On the tabletop

    The 5.5-inch gun was the medium artillery of the Royal Artillery, and the four-wheel-drive AEC Matador towed it while carrying crew and ammunition. The 67 parts build the complete team in 1:76 with one set of markings. You can show it as a column on a country road, or unlimber the gun in a position well behind the front with the tractor camouflaged next to it. For games with 1:76 figures it gives your British side heavy support from the rear.
