About product

The Soviet 52-R-353M artillery limber (1:35, Trumpeter)

Injection-molded plastic kit of the Soviet general-purpose 52-R-353M model 1942 artillery limber in 1:35 scale from Trumpeter. This is a standalone artillery accessory, neither a gun nor a vehicle: the limber served to hitch up and tow field guns. The model offers fine detail, imitation wood grain, photo-etched parts, rubber tires and separately molded tools (a bucket, a shovel, a pick, an axe and a crate).

The real subject

The 52-R-353M artillery limber was a general-purpose two-wheeled cart introduced in 1942 and intended for towing Soviet regimental and divisional 76.2 mm guns. It was usually drawn by a four-horse team and doubled as an ammunition cart. The limber was coupled between the draft animals (or the tractor) and the gun carriage, which brought the gun into its traveling configuration. It was a common part of Soviet field artillery in the Second World War.

Building and painting tips

Bend the fine photo-etched parts and the handrails with care. Bring out the imitation wood grain with oils or a wash for a convincing texture. Prime the model and spray Soviet green, then set the metal and wooden parts apart with a different shade. Paint the tools separately. Add dust and mud pigments to the wheels and the lower areas. The model works well paired with a gun and a horse team.

Who the model is for

  • For anyone interested in Soviet field artillery of the Second World War
  • For builders of dioramas with a gun and a horse team
  • For collectors of artillery accessories in 1:35 scale
  • For more advanced modelers who will appreciate the fine detail and the photo-etched parts

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

A two-wheeled cart coupled between the draft team and the gun carriage. It allowed the gun to be towed and doubled as an ammunition cart. On its own it is neither a gun nor a vehicle.

To the Soviet regimental and divisional 76.2 mm guns. That makes the model an excellent match for such a gun paired with a horse team.

It is better suited to more advanced modelers. It contains fine parts and photo-etched details that call for experience and patience.
