1/35 M915 Gun Truck
Trumpeter 1/35 M915 Gun Truck is a plastic kit of the US semi-tractor converted into an armoured convoy escort vehicle. It has 260 parts. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The M915 is a US Army 6×4 semi-tractor intended for line-haul transport on improved roads; the first versions were built by AM General, later ones by Freightliner. During operations in Iraq, trucks were turned into improvised gun trucks – vehicles with armoured superstructures and weapons that protected supply convoys.
According to the manufacturer, the Trumpeter kit in 1/35 scale consists of 260 parts, and the finished model is around 195 mm long. The box art shows the tractor with an armoured box behind the cab and a machine-gun position, in green, brown and sand camouflage.
The unusual mix of a civilian-looking tractor and improvised armour makes it a striking model for a collection of modern US vehicles or a checkpoint diorama. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
