Dragon 6261 15cm Infantry Gun w. Crew (1/35) – detailed model of a German WWII howitzer

The Dragon 6261 15cm Infantry Gun w. Crew kit in 1/35 scale is a perfect choice for historical modeling enthusiasts who want to recreate an authentic artillery scene from World War II. This set features the German infantry gun 15cm sIG 33 (schweres Infanteriegeschütz 33) along with its crew – one of the largest and heaviest infantry support guns used by the Wehrmacht, particularly recognizable during battles in Europe from 1939 to 1945.

The 15cm sIG 33 was the main heavy infantry support gun of the German Army. Used in most World War II campaigns by the Reich and various multipurpose units (from infantry divisions to armored grenadier formations), it was known for its powerful caliber and wide tactical applications. It stood out especially during the Battle of Stalingrad or the defense of positions on both the Eastern and Western Fronts.
