"SV48 120mm mortar with crew (3)" is what you mean with this one?
Others look useful, though wagons could probably be scrounged from other lists.

Cheers for that, I'd missed it (and will be ordering some)!  Really need the 50mm mortars and 37mm AA though.

Is there any plans to make these as they are essential for Airborn Recce.

As far as Russian WW2 guns are concerned:

- a Dshk AAMG on or off a truck (I may well convert a Viet Minh one pro tem).
- 76mm M27 infantry howitzer (or possibly M43 on a 45mm AT gun carriage) - six equipped each regimental gun company and some rifle brigades had them as field artillery
- 122mm M30 divisional howitzers to go with the 76mm divisional guns.

I've proxied a Bofors as a stand in for the 37mm M39.  Note that another manufacturer does do the 85mm AA.

- 76mm M27 infantry howitzer (

I want a few.  I want the model with the rubber-tyre steel wheels -- there was an intrawar model with spoked wheels, you might consider offering either-or as a wheel option.

I'm going to third this.  The Soviet 76mm (76L16) M27 infantry gun is an important bit of kit that is sorely missing.

It's a re-work of gthe WWI feild gun I think, can check. So woukd just be a tyre replacement.

The M27 Infantry gun is a new design, not a reworked WWI model, I think. It's different from the Model 10P IG or the WWI field guns. Some similarities, but different shield, barrel and trail.

But as a further incentive, you can use it with Germans as the InfanterieKanoneHaubitze (IKH) 290(r) on all fronts. Some captured in Normandy, July 1944.
