Although only three of these vehicles were built in the 1940s, and only one of them purportedly saw combat, this is an exceptionally interesting subject that has hitherto only been available to modelers as a resin kit. This kit has all the detail, and then some, that your heart could desire; more than enough parts to keep you busy for a while. The included metal barrel is a nice touch. It is not a kit for beginners and might even frustrate some who have some modeling experience under their belt. The quality of the parts, the level of detail, the exceptional engineering, and the well done instructions will enable the patient modeler to produce a very, very nice model.
