1/35 7.5cm PaK 40/4 auf RSO mit Allwetterverdeck

Description

This is an injection-plastic military vehicle model kit.

From the Dragon website:

The acronym RSO stands for Raupenschlepper Ost, which translates as Caterpillar Tractor East. The terrible muddy and icy conditions experienced on the Eastern Front convinced Germany it needed a highly mobile, tracked vehicle. Steyr proposed the RSO and it immediately became popular thanks to its mobility and reliability. In all, about 23,000 RSOs were produced by a range of manufacturers. The original version had a pressed-steel cab and truck-style cargo bed. Later it was decided to convert some into an anti-tank role by mounting the 75mm PaK 40/4 gun on the rear and by lightly armoring the drivers compartment. Thus the variant portrayed in Dragons newest release was born.
