British Self-Propelled Anti-Tank Gun Archer (Tamiya 1/35)

TuotekuvausTamiyan omat sanat: 1/35 British Self-Propelled Anti-Tank Gun Archer The latest release in the 1/35 Military Miniature Series recreates the British Army’s Archer. As WWII progressed, British troops found that their 2 pounder and 6 pounder guns were being rendered obsolete by German armor, and planners decided to develop a vehicle using the powerful 17 pounder (76.2mm) gun. The vehicle chosen to mount the gun on was the Valentine; the turret was removed and replaced with a fighting compartment – this would be known as the Archer. Interestingly, as there was little time to re-organize the cramped layout, the 17 pounder had to be mounted pointing rearwards to fit it in. As a result, the Archer moved and fired in opposite directions. It offered strong performance, however, and served with British andCommonwealth units from October 1944 till the end of WWII, the British using it until the early 1950s.
