ICM 1/35 Studebaker US6-U5 is a plastic kit of the American WWII gasoline tank truck. It contains 253 parts and 2 marking options. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The US6-U5 was a versatile fuel tanker on the chassis of the Studebaker US6 heavy truck, developed by the Studebaker Corporation in 1941 and built in some 200,000 examples across thirteen variants. It carried a 750-gallon (2,840-litre) Heil tank made up of two 375-gallon tanks mounted in tandem, with side racks for 5-gallon fuel cans.
The conversions were carried out at the Heil factory in Milwaukee, Wisconsin; around 1,150 vehicles were produced and supplied to US allies.
The ICM kit offers 253 parts; the finished model is 181 mm long and 64 mm high. The decals provide two options from the Second World War. The tanker makes a welcome addition to a supply column or a diorama of a field fuel dump. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
