The subject of Dragon’s latest 1/72 scale plastic kit is a delightful model of the American-designed Sikorsky SH-3G Sea King helicopter. Originally, the twin-engine SH-3 Sea King was used primarily in the role of anti-submarine warfare (ASW) by the US Navy (USN). It was also the first amphibious helicopter in the world and it entered USN service in 1961. Various modifications occurred in its lifespan, with a total of 105 SH-3A and SH-3D craft being converted into the versatile SH-3G. The latter was a cargo, utility and transport helicopter used by the USN. In the 1990s the SH-3 Sea King was replaced by the SH-60 Seahawk in the USN. This 1/72 scale Dragon plastic model is well designed and cleverly engineered to induce maximum modeling enjoyment. The fuselage is correctly proportioned and it’s furnished with a full level of detail both inside and outside. It has a new part to plug the gap where the sonar was originally located. The foldable rotor blades are made to true scale thickness too. With appropriate Cartograf decal markings for several USN squadrons available, this SH-3G is ready to lift off in service of the navy!

12,8cm Kanone (К 81/2)

En modell av merkevaren Ace Modeller settet: 12,8cm Kanone (К 81/2) – Ace Models 72521.

12.8 cm Kanone 81(K-81/2) was a German heavy anti-tank gun designed to fight against heavy Soviet tanks like IS-2. The German army had encountered the Russian 122 mm guns and had issued a requirement for a similar weapon. Approximately 50 barrels and breeches were used on existing carriages. The weapon that used the ex-French GPF-T carriage was known as the K 81/1 while the K 81/2 used the ex-Russian A-19/ML-20 carriages with shield and balancing gear removed. the cradle and recoil system were discarded and the 128mm gun was mounted in a ring cradle similar to that used on the 81/1. Another version K 81/2 was also built, in which original Russian equilibrators were retained.

M-48 Patton M48A2C

Den mellomstore tanken M-48 Patton ble født under den kalde krigen for å erstatte den forrige, og utbredt, M-47. De første enhetene ble levert til United States Army i begynnelsen av 50-tallet. Sammenlignet med forgjengeren brukte M-48 et nytt skrog og et nytt tårn, laget både ved fusjon og mer beskyttende, og et nytt fjæringssystem. De tidlige versjonene vedtok den samme 90 mm. pistolen til M-47. M-48 Patton ble produsert i løpet av sin historie i et imponerende antall og spilte en aktiv rolle i flere krigsteater. Mye, brukt siden 1965, under Vietnamkrigen, og spesielt av Marinekorpset, ble "Patton" også brukt av israelerne, sammen med den tyngre Centurion, under seksdagerskrigen i 1967. Versjonen A2 ble karakterisert, spesielt av motor, transmisjoner og tårnforbedringer.

Album av 200 bilder av en BM-31 12 Katyusha

Fotogalleri av en BM-31 12 Katyusha rakettkaster, Katyusha multiple rocket launchers are a type of rocket artillery first built and fielded by the Soviet Union in World War II. Multiple rocket launchers such as these deliver a devastating amount of explosives to a target area more quickly than conventional artillery, but with lower accuracy and requiring a longer time to reload. They are fragile compared to artillery guns, but are inexpensive and easy to produce. Katyushas of World War II, the first self-propelled artillery mass-produced by the Soviet Union, were usually mounted on trucks. This mobility gave the Katyusha (and other self-propelled artillery) another advantage: being able to deliver a large blow all at once, and then move before being located and attacked with counter-battery fire. Katyusha weapons of World War II included the BM-13 utskyter, lett BM-8 og tung BM-31. I dag brukes kallenavnet også på nyere lastebilmonterte sovjetiske rakettkastere – spesielt den vanlige BM-21 – og derivater.
