1/35 Laffly V15T, WWII French Artillery Towing Vehicle
ICM 1/35 Laffly V15T is a plastic kit of the French light artillery tractor of 1940. It has 209 parts and decals for two vehicles. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The four-wheel-drive Laffly V15T was created as a light artillery tractor for French motorised infantry units. Its main task was towing the Hotchkiss 25 mm anti-tank gun. Like other Laffly designs it had an unusual chassis with small auxiliary wheels in the nose and under the centre of the body, intended to improve its cross-country ability on the battlefield.
Laffly itself built only 100 vehicles; further production was taken over by La Licorne at its car factory in Courbevoie. Besides the French Army, the Wehrmacht also made extensive use of the tractor, both for carrying personnel and as a radio vehicle.
The ICM kit in 1/35 scale has 209 parts, and the finished model measures approximately 128 × 50 mm. The manufacturer highlights the detailed body and chassis, and the decals provide two vehicles in France from early and summer 1940. The small tractor with its auxiliary wheels stands out in any collection of lesser-known vehicles from the French campaign. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
