An excellent addition to any World War II artillery model – the RB Model 72B49 152.4mm L/27 D-1 howitzer model 1943 is a precisely turned metal barrel designed for models of the D-1 howitzer from 1943 in the popular 1/72 scale. The product is made by the renowned Polish manufacturer RB Model, known for top-quality modeling accessories.

The 152.4 mm D-1 howitzer (factory designation M1943) was developed in the USSR during World War II as support for infantry and heavy artillery units. It was widely used by the Red Army, including during the Battle of Berlin and in battles on the Eastern Front. The main period of production and use of this howitzer was during World War II (1943-1945), although in some countries it continued to be used even after the conflict ended.

The RB Model 72B49 product stands out for its exceptional manufacturing precision – the barrel is turned on a micro-lathe from high-grade metal. This results in a highly realistic replica with detailed features, a perfectly smooth surface, and accurate length matching the scale. Such a solution allows you to significantly increase the realism even in the most demanding dioramas and scale model collections.
