KFS miniatures 35-001 - 1/35 Soviet Rocket Guntruck “Broom” Upgrade Set

Upgrade set for 1/35 Ural 4320 from ICM/Alanger/Revell

 

 

A part of BRDM’s hull with UB-32-57 rocket launcher attached to its turret, ready to be mounted on 1/35 Ural 4320 cargo bed. The set also includes additional armour plates for the truck cab.
Such guntrucks were used by the Soviet troops in Afghanistan in 1987 to defend the convoys moved through the valleys and ravines.

 

 

Rocket launchers proved to be more effective in firing to the high edges of the valleys than machine guns. These vehicles were nicknamed “?????” ( “Broom” ) by the name of their constructor.
