The American Armoured Gun Truck is an improvised armored vehicle widely used by the US Army during the Vietnam War to escort convoys. They were armed with heavy machine guns, and improvised armor increased crew survival chances during guerrilla attacks. This type of vehicle allowed for effective defense against ambushes, forming the backbone of protection for logistics convoys.

The Eduard 36254 set allows you to significantly enhance the ITALERI model, offering numerous details not available in the standard set, such as realistic protective mesh screens, precise replicas of latches and handles, and delicate interior vehicle details. Eduard's etching precision ensures a faithful reproduction of the period vehicle's details. The entire set is packaged in the manufacturer's original safe foil, and the included instructions clearly guide you through the assembly process.

We recommend this set for intermediate and advanced modelers (difficulty level 4/5) due to the required precision and skill in working with delicate metal details. The product is perfect for military and historical diorama enthusiasts who wish to elevate the realism of their US Army Gun Truck models from the Vietnam War era.

Eduard photo-etched sets are a guarantee of the highest quality and satisfaction with the end result. It's an excellent choice for anyone wishing to add exceptional depth and detail to their models.
