1/35 Ground Self-Defense Force 120mm Mortar RT w / Heavy Towing Vehicle

Description

This is an injection-plastic field gun model kit.

A mortar can be operated by a small number of people by simplifying the mechanism and reducing the weight, even if it sacrifices the rising range compared to general artillery, which led to the 120mm-caliber class that appeared in the 1980s. Even heavy mortars can be towed by small vehicles, demonstrating their high mobility, and in recent years, howitzers of the same class are being replaced with heavy mortars, demonstrating this gun’s usefulness.

The 120mm mortar RT used by the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force was developed in France and manufactured under license in Japan. The gun is equipped with a set of wheels, and it is towed by a heavy towing vehicle with special specifications for high-mobility vehicles.

This model kit from Fine Molds reproduces this heavy mortar with delicate details, and also reproduces the heavy mortar towing vehicle by adding new special parts. The mortar also includes the wooden box for ammunition and sighting equipment, as well as the safety parts for driving; you can assemble it in either towed or shooting mode. Order yours today!
