Historical information and application

The 10.5 cm leFH 18 (leichte Feldhaubitze 18) howitzer was one of the most commonly used field artillery pieces by the Wehrmacht during World War II. It served in infantry and motorized artillery divisions and took part in campaigns in Poland, France, on the Eastern and Western fronts. The L/28 barrel, the version with a length of 28 calibers, was standard in the basic versions of this howitzer, providing effective range and combat efficiency.

The model lets you replace the original part in any set with a much better-looking detail, especially if you plan to build historical dioramas depicting WWII battles. We highly recommend it to all historical modeling enthusiasts and collectors of German field artillery models.
