Flakvierling 38 Quad 20mm AA gun

The German Falkvierling 38 Quad 20mm AA gun was a fearsome weapon, both in the anti aircraft role and as a ground support weapon. (The word 'Vierling' means in German 'quadruple')

Produced from 1940 to 1945 this versatile weapon was used both as a towed weapon, mounted on trucks and halftracks, on ferries and also later marks of U Boats!

In its AA role it was deadly at up to 2000 metres against Allied aircraft and when mounted on a Panzer IV chassis, as a Wirblewind, provided an AA umbrella for armoured formations.

This is the towed version, and comes with a crew of three.

Just added on the website!

Russian Mid/Late War Infantry Company + Support

Pack Price: £21.50

This pack contains a complete Russian Infantry Company, including Company Command.

Also included are 2 45mm AT guns & crews, 1 AT rifle, 1 Light mortar & crew, 2 Medium machineguns and crews and 2 Medium mortars and crews. Totalling 109 figures.

Not a single pose is wasted! The photos tell the story. (And that's only part of the pack you get!)

By 1943 the Russian infantry company was much leaner than that which started out in 1941, but firepower had increased significantly. The old light mortar was still there... but phased out later. (though still unofficially kept in many formations up until the end of the war) The AT rifle was still an integral part of the company up to the end of the war, and you will see a mix of sub machineguns in this pack, the 'old faithful' PPSh-41 and the later PPS-43, a mix which carried forward into 1945.

All in all this pack will meet your requirements in full, so 'Huzzah!' and 'Forward with Mother Russia!'

NEW! LVT(A)-4

Now that's what we call fire support!

The LVT(A)-4 was the logical progression from the earlier LVT(A)-1 support amphibious armoured vehicle, as it became clear that the earlier model's 37mm gun could not do much damage to Japanese bunkers. The turret of the M8 'Scott' with its 75mm short barrel howitzer was the answer. Along with a .50 and two .30 machineguns this was a mighty provider of fire support towards the later stages of the Pacific island hopping campaign. Over 1800 were produced by the end of the war.

Now available on the website - Marmon Herrington Armoured Car

Designed in South Africa, the Marmon Herrington armoured car entered service in 1940, seeing extensive service in the British 8th Army, gaining an excellent reputation for reliability, and often having field modifications from its standard 2 pounder gun (or Boyes AT Rifle) & parallel MG, these being usually Italian guns of different small calibres. The various marks continued in service until 1943, a total of over 5000 being produced. (And some were used up to the 1990s!)

Unit Price £3.75

P47C Razorback

The American P47 was one of the iconic aircraft of World War 2. The American bomber (B17 initially) proved unequal to the Luftwaffe when the 8th Airforce appeared over the skies of France i 1942 and it was clear that fighter support with good range was required to protect the 'big birds'.

The P47 was the answer. Designed in 1940 it went into production in 1942, the C& D versions being almost identical and proved more than the equal of the best the Germans had to offer.

As later, and bubble canopy models were introduced the P47 C/D found a new and terrible role, as a perfect ground attack aircraft from June 1944 in Normandy. This aircraft was the main cause of German lack of road movement during daylight hours up to the end of the war... armed with 8 .50cal MGs and underwing bombs and rugged this was arguably a perfect ground attack aircraft.

10000 were produced before production switched to the bubble canopy.
