Historical background:
Polish field artillery in 1939 formed the backbone of the firepower of infantry divisions and cavalry brigades. Artillerymen were trained to operate a variety of weapons, including the famous 75mm wz. 02/26 field guns (the so-called "Prawosławne") and modern 37mm wz. 36 Bofors anti-tank guns. Despite the enemy's technical superiority, Polish artillery crews demonstrated extraordinary skill and courage, often fighting to the last shell in defense of the borders of the Republic of Poland. The uniforms depicted in the set correspond to the regulation uniform of a Polish soldier from that period, including the characteristic field rogatywka caps.
The set also includes a historical booklet in Polish, which provides insight into the technical and historical aspects related to artillery formations in September 1939. The figures are perfect for creating historical dioramas and as elements for 1:72 scale wargaming.
Set for self-assembly and painting. Does not include paints or glue. To assemble, you need separately sold modeling tools (e.g., nippers, files, tweezers), paints, brushes and plastic model glue (e.g., Tamiya Extra Thin Cement). The photo shows a professionally assembled and painted model.
