Responsibility details are not available.
A detailing addition, not a vehicle kit. It is a turned metal barrel for a 105 mm gun 52 calibers long, intended for a model of the Japanese Type 16 MCV wheeled combat vehicle. Aber is a Polish maker that has long specialized in turned barrels and photo-etched accessories. The main benefit is obvious at a glance: one-piece metal is perfectly straight and round, has the muzzle correctly drilled out and does away with sanding a lengthwise seam.
The Type 16 MCV is a modern Japanese wheeled combat vehicle in an 8x8 configuration with drive to all wheels, developed for the rapidly deployable units of the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force. It carries a 105 mm gun in a rotating turret and combines firepower close to that of a tank with the road mobility and air transportability of a wheeled chassis. It is precisely the long slender barrel that defines its silhouette, so on a model it is among the most exposed elements.
Cut the plastic barrel off at right angles to the axis, true the face with a file and check that the metal part seats with no play. Glue it with cyanoacrylate, ideally the gel version, which allows time to adjust the position. Check the alignment from the front and from above before the glue sets. Degrease the metal before painting and lay on a primer intended for metal. Darken the muzzle gently at the end with a wash or a pigment, so that it does not look like a solid rod.
A detailing part, not a complete model. Glue, paints and the base kit are not included in the package.
