1:35 MAZ/ChMZAP-5247G is a photo-etched add-on set for a plastic kit of the heavy tractor and semi-trailer you already own, not a standalone model. The metal parts sharpen up the areas that cannot be made in injection-molded plastic. The set is cut for the Trumpeter 00211/00212 kit.

This aftermarket set from Voyager Model holds brass photo-etched parts for a model of the Soviet heavy tractor with the ChMZAP-5247G lowboy semi-trailer. It is not a kit of the vehicle but a detail accessory meant for the Trumpeter 00211/00212 plastic model.
The combination of the heavy eight-wheeled MAZ-537 series tractor and the ChMZAP-5247G semi-trailer served to carry tanks and other heavy tracked vehicles on the road and across country. The tractor was driven by a powerful diesel engine derived from tank practice, and the whole combination was among the heaviest wheeled vehicles of its day. The semi-trailer has a large platform with side frames, ramp features and a dense structure of sheet and mesh, which is exactly what gets simplified most in plastic.
On a combination with a long platform it is essential to keep the photo-etched strips flat. Never cut long parts out with scissors, which will ripple them; separate them with a scalpel against a hard surface or with photo-etch nippers. Make the bends in a bending tool or between two steel rulers, always along the whole length at once rather than in sections. Before gluing, lay the part on dry, check that it seats along its whole length and fix it gradually in short stretches, so that the glue does not grab before the part is straight. Brass that has twisted during cutting can often be saved by smoothing it between sheets of hard paper under a steel ruler.
This is an add-on set for a model. The kit, paints and glue are not included in the package.
