Italeri 6751 Semovente M43 “Bassotto” 1/35
The Italeri 6751 Semovente M43 da 105/25 "Bassotto" is a 1/35 plastic kit of the Italian Second World War self-propelled gun. New moulds are complemented by a metal barrel and photo-etched parts.
The M43 105/25 "Bassotto" self-propelled gun was developed by Italian industry to boost the offensive capability of the Royal Italian Army's armoured and self-propelled artillery units. It was based on the modified, widened and lowered chassis of the M15/42 tank and carried an Ansaldo 105/25 howitzer in a casemate. It entered service with a limited number of units in 1943 and fought on the Italian front. After the Italian armistice several were captured and used by German troops as the StuG M43 mit 105/25.
The Italeri kit comes from new moulds and includes a metal gun barrel, link-and-length tracks, photo-etched parts, a colour instruction sheet and decals for four versions. The finished model is 17 cm long.
The metal barrel, individual-link tracks and four marking options make the model an interesting project for more experienced modellers. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
