Title: Soviet regimental infantry guns
Post by: lentulus on 10 September 2011, 07:56:24 PM
How can we do without such a widely used weapon?

That limber is also a proper one for the 45mm anti-tank gun.

Please?

Greetings

This seems to be an oft repeated refrain :-)

As an entirely interim measure I took an old 76mm gun (SV24 76.2mm FG, spoke wheels, with crew), cut down the barrel and used clippers to create a cut out in the gun shield.  It's on the painting table at the moment.  I'd really like a proper one though if only because I can then use some for the more oddly equipped rifle brigade artillery battalions etc.

Regards

Got to keep begging for votes.  It was standard kit, even though it was dropped like a hot potato after the war.

I'd like to see an image of your kitbash if you could post one.

Agreed, this and the lack of the 37mm AA is a major hole in the Soviet line.
