Trumpeter 1:35 Soviet Soldiers - Afghan War - Plastic Figure Model Kit #00433
The Soviet-Afghan War started in December 1979 and lasted for ten years until February 1989. The government of the Democratic Republic of Afghanistan and the Soviet Army fought against insurgent groups who were backed by the United States and Pakistan. The conflict began in 1978 when People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan took power and implemented a series of reforms which were unpopular among the rural population of Afghanistan. The government arrested thousands of people from the opposition and executed thousands of political prisoners. By 1979 the country was in open rebellion and the president Nur Mohammad Taraki was murdered under orders of the Minister of Foreign Affairs who then took the president's post. These events resulted in the Soviet decision to send its troops to Afghanistan in December 1979. During the course of the war, between 500 thousand and 2 million civilians were killed. Millions of Afghans fled the country as refugees mostly to Pakistan and Iran.
This kit includes parts for the assembly of three Soviet soldiers and seven rifles.

Trumpeter 1:35 - German 2cm Flakvierling 38 auf Selbstfahrlafette (Sd.Kfz.7/1 Late Version) - Plastic model kit #01524
The Flak 38 was a German 20mm anti-aircraft gun used throughout WWII which became the most numerously produced German artillery piece of the period. The 20mm Flakvierling 38 auf Selbstfahrlafette (Sd. Kfz. 7/1) was the result of combining the 20mm Flakvierling 38 with four Flak 38 guns and the Sd. Kfz. 7 half-track, to provide greater mobility and firepower. The Sd. Kfz. 7/1 carried 600 2cm rounds on board and 1800 rounds in the towed Sd. Ah. 56 trailer. The guns had the 360 degrees traverse by hand and could be elevated from -10 to +100 degrees. The later versions also included an armoured cab for better protection of the crews. A crew of 10 included a gun commander, eight gunners and a driver.
The first 100 vehicles were produced in 1940-1941 and production continued at a rate of 10 vehicles per month until August 1942, when the monthly rate was significantly increased. Around 800 vehicles were produced by December 1944. From 1942, most vehicles were fitted with lightly armoured driver cabs and a plate to protect the engine compartment. The armour was 8mm thick. These vehicles were issued to Flak units of the Luftwaffe and Panzer units of the German Army. Sd. Kfz. 7/1 units were used to protect armoured units against low flying aircraft but were also successfully used against ground targets.
The kit represents a late version of the Sd.Kfz.7/1 with a 20mm Flakvierling 38. Early versions featured the central circular pivot mounting for the 20mm Flakvierling 38. Later versions had a normal ground mounting fitted to the rear bed which allowed the gun to be easily removed and mounted on the standard Flakvierling Sd. Ah. 52 trailer if necessary.

Trumpeter 1:35 - BS-3 Soviet 100mm Anti-tank Gun M1944 - Plastic model kit #02331
The BS-3 was based on a B-34 naval gun. The development team was led by V. G. Grabin. The gun was employed by light artillery brigades of tank armies (20 pieces along with 48 ZiS-3) and by corps artillery. In the Second World War the BS-3 was successfully used as a powerful anti-tank gun. It was capable of defeating any contemporary tank at long range, excluding the Tiger Ausf B: to destroy that heavy tank the gun needed to shoot at less than 1600m from the target. The gun was also used as a field gun. Though in this role it was less powerful than the 122 mm A-19, as it fired a smaller round, the BS-3 was more mobile and had a higher rate of fire.

Trumpeter 1:35 - Chinese Z-9WA Helicopter - Plastic model kit #05109
The Harbin Z-9, also known as "Haitun" ("Haitun" is Chinese for "Dolphin"), is a licensed Chinese version of the French multipurpose Eurocopter AS365 Dauphin. It was first built by Harbin Aircraft Manufacturing Corporation in 1981 from the parts supplied by Aérospatiale (now Airbus Helicopters), a French aerospace manufacturer. A decade later, Z-9 helicopters consisted of 70% Chinese-made components and were ready for production. It was opened in 1993, launching a new Z-9B model.
The Z-9 helicopter was designed as light transport able to carry 10 fully equipped soldiers. It has a four-blade rotor and two turbo-shaft engines fitted next to each other on top of the cabin. The armed version was designated as WZ-9 or Z-9W. It is equipped with anti-tank missiles, both thermal and night vision optics as well as a tracking module.
The Z-9WA is one of the latest models of the series capable of shooting air-to-surface missiles. It is also compatible with a number of anti-tank, anti-ship and air-to-air missiles.

Trumpeter 1:35 - German Anti-aircraft Gun, 3.7cm Flak 43 - Plastic model kit #02311
The 3.7cm Flak 18/36/37/43 was a series of anti-aircraft cannon produced by Nazi Germany that saw widespread service in the Second World War. The 3.7cm Flak 43 was a dramatic improvement over older models. A new gas-operated breech increased the practical firing rate to 150 RPM, while at the same time dropping in weight to 1,250 kg (2,760 lb) in combat, and 2,000 kg (4,400 lb) in transport. It was also produced in a twin-gun mount, the 3.7cm Flakzwilling 43, although this version was considered somewhat unwieldy and top-heavy. The barrel remained basically the same as that of the Flak 18, 36 and 37. Changes in manufacture speed meant that only 1000 man hours were needed to manufacture the cannon, compared to the previous 4320 man hours.

The German Entwicklung, or E-series tank designs were intended to replace the existing tanks such as the Jagdpanzer 38(t), Panther Ausf.G and Tiger II. The E-series vehicles were meant to be much simpler and cheaper to produce than their predecessors.
The E-75 Standardpanzer - standard heavy tank - was designed to replace the Tiger II and Jagdtiger. 75 stood for the intended weight of the vehicle - 75 tonnes. The E-75 was to use the Maybach HL 234 engine and due to its heavy weight the vehicle's maximum speed would be around 40 km/h.
The E-75 Standardpanzer shared many components with the E-50 which was intended to replace the Panther and Tiger I. The two vehicles were meant to have the same turret and the 8.8 cm KwK 43 L/71 gun.

In 1942 the decision was made to build a heavy self-propelled gun carrier for the 17cm Kanone 18 based on the chassis of the Tiger II. The vehicle was named the Geschützwagen Tiger. Its total weight including 8 crew members would reach 60 tons. The armour thickness was 30mm at the front and 16mm on the sides. The Geschützwagen's planned top speed was 45km/h on roads.
The first prototype of this vehicle was tested at the end of WWII, but the tank never saw service due to the defeat of Germany. The partly assembled prototype was found by Allied troops in Haustenbeck in 1945.

The Jagdpanzer 38 (Sd.Kfz. 138/2), later known as the Hetzer ("pursuer/hunter"), was a German light tank destroyer, based on a modified Czechoslovakian Panzer 38(t) chassis, inspired by the Romanian "Mareşal" tank destroyer.
The Jagdpanzer 38 Starr ("Starr" means "rigid" in German) was a simplified version of the Jagdpanzer 38, first built in 1944. It was armed with the 75mm Pak 39 recoilless gun, while the original Hetzer used a traditional 75mm Pak 39 gun. First prototypes of the Hetzer-Starr were equipped with Tatra 928 diesel engines, however later they were replaced with standard engines. Several Hetzer-Starrs were used during the Prague uprising in 1945. Overall 10 vehicles of this type were built, 9 of them were later converted back to the normal Jagdpanzer 38. The remaining prototype was destroyed at the end of the war.

Trumpeter 1:35 - German Neubaufahrzeug Rheinmetall Tank - Plastic model kit #05528
Development of the Neubaufahrzeug ("New construction vehicle") started in 1933. It was the first attempt to create a heavy multi-turreted tank for the Wehrmacht. In 1926 the British built their version of a heavy multi-turreted tank, the Vickers A1E1 Independent, and the Germans bought its technical details from a British officer who acted as a spy. Both Rheinmetall and Krupp were designing a German heavy tank. Their designs turned out to be very similar, the main difference being the weapons placement. Both tanks had a main turret armed with a 75mm KwK L/24 main gun and secondary 37mm KwK L/45. Rheinmetall's design was called PzKpfw NbFz V, and Krupp's design was designated PzKpfw NbFz VI. However, both designs proved to be too complex, unreliable and slow to serve as heavy tanks. Only five tanks were produced and they were primarily used for propaganda purposes. Three out of five Neubaufahrzeug's took part in the Battle of Norway in 1940, but none of them survived the war.

Trumpeter 1:35 - German Super Heavy Jagdpanzer E-100 - Plastic model kit #01596
The Entwicklung series (German for "development"), shortened to E-Series, was a family of late WWII German tanks that were planned to be developed according to a standardised design. This was an attempt to stop the production of extremely complex and mechanically unreliable tanks in favour of cheaper, simpler and more efficient designs. However, the E-Series tanks featured only small modifications in armour and gun power compared to their predecessors which they were intended to replace.
The E-100 was one of the latest tanks of the E-Series. Based on the Tiger-Maus design that combined features of the Tiger II and the Maus, the E-100 prototype was constructed in 1944. However, further development was practically ended right after Hitler had issued the order to stop the Maus project.
Initially, a 75mm coaxial gun similar to the one from the Maus was meant to serve as the vehicle's armament, but later it was decided to choose a 170mm anti-tank gun in order to save more space for the crew and equipment. Another advantage of the 170mm gun was that it could shoot armour piercing projectiles at the range of up to 4 km. The speed of the tank was expected to reach 40 km/h.

The Sturmpanzer Bär (Bear) was a German anti-tank self-propelled gun developed in 1942. Although this project was not put into production, the Sturmpanzer Bär influenced the design of other self-propelled guns including the Sturmtiger assault gun.
The Sturmpanzer Bär was based on the modified chassis of the Tiger I and had 130mm frontal armour. It was to be armed with a 305mm KwK L/16 anti-tank cannon and powered by a 12-cylinder Maybach HL 230 P 30 engine (700 horsepower). According to the design, the vehicle would be operated by a 6 men crew - a commander, a gunner, two loaders, a radio operator and a driver.
Had the Sturmpanzer Bär been produced, its total weight would be 120 tons.

The JS-7 heavy tank, also known as the IS-7, was designed in 1948. With its mass equal to 68 tonnes it was the largest and heaviest specimen of the Joseph Stalin tank series. The JS-7 was distinguished by 130 mm S-70 long-barrel gun and thick armour able to protect against the German Pak 44 L/55. Besides, the JS-7 had a "pike nose" front that ensured a high level of protection against head-on attacks. Due to its 1050-hp engine, the tank could travel at 60 km/h.
Despite all its merits, the JS-7 never entered production; there were fears that railway platforms and bridges couldn't bear its weight.

The number 43 refers to 1943, the year when the first prototype was produced. With a maximum range of up to 16 km, the Pak. 43 was considered the most powerful anti-tank gun of the German Army. It could penetrate the armour of the Soviet JS-2 and other Allied tanks. The anti-tank gun remained in service till 1945 and was one of the most mass-produced cannons of the period.
The Pak. 43 and its modifications were also used on several German tank destroyers. One of those was the Waffentrager 88mm PAK-43 manufactured by the Ardelt company and based on the Checkoslovakian Panzer 38(t) chassis.

China produced three versions of the M-46: the Type 59, the Type 59-1 and the Type GM-45. The Type 59 is a licensed version of the Soviet M-46. The Type 59-1 combines the 130mm ordnance of the Type 59 with the Type 60 carriage and has a gun of much lower weight - 6.3 t. The Type GM-45 was designed for the export market and has a maximum range of 39 km.

Trumpeter 1:35 - PLA Type 62 Light Tank - Plastic Model Kit #05537
The PLA Type 62 light tank, also known as the Norinco Type 62 or WZ131, was manufactured in China in the early 1960s. Its design originated from the Chinese Type 59, however, due to thinner armour and smaller 85 mm Type 62-85TC rifled gun its weight was reduced, which made it much more appropriate to the geographical environment of Southern China with its lakes, rivers and rice paddies.
The maximum range of the gun was 12,200 m and maximum aimed range was 1,870 m. The fire range could amount to 5 rpm. The Type 62 was additionally equipped with 12.7 mm Type 54 anti-aircraft heavy machine gun (a Chinese copy of 12.7 mm DShK 1938/46 heavy machine gun) and two 7.62 mm Type 59T medium machine guns. Another 7.62 mm Type 59T machine gun could be added to the left side of the turret hatch.
The Type 62 tank appeared on the battlefield during the Vietnam War, Ho Chi Minh Campaign and Sino-Vietnamese War, however eventually it was recognised as ill-equipped for warfare because of its thin armour and poor armament.
At present the Type 62 is withdrawn from use in China, however it still operates in other countries as fire support or against lightly armoured vehicles.

Trumpeter 1:35 - PLZ-83A SPH - Plastic model kit #05536
The Type 83 SPH is a Chinese 152 mm self-propelled standard heavy howitzer. The gun entered service in the early 1980s and was used in Korea and against the Russians. The Type 83, armed with a modified version of the Type 66 gun, was the first modern self-propelled gun in service with the People's Liberation Army of China. Overall 78 guns were built until the end of production in 1990.
The Type 83 SPH was made from steel. It was also armed with a 12.7mm machine gun and a hand-held Rocket-propelled grenade launcher. The vehicle had a maximum speed of 55 km/h.
Soon after entering service, the Type 83 SPH was determined to be obsolescent and China started to develop new systems.

Trumpeter 1:35 - Trumpeter 1:35 Russian 9P113 TEL with 9M21 Rocket of 9K52 Luna-M Short-range artillery - Plastic model kit #01025
The 9K52 Luna-M ("Luna" - Russian: Луна, English: moon) is a Russian short-range artillery rocket system designed to deliver 9M21 uncontrolled missiles. The system is also known under the NATO name "FROG-7" (Free Rocket Over Ground).
The rockets are carried by the 9P113 transport erector launcher (TEL). Derived from the ZIL-135 8x8 army truck, the 9P113 has a hydraulic crane used for reloading rockets from other transporters. The range of the rocket is up to 70 km and a CEP (circle of equal probability) is between 500 m and 700 m. The 9M21 can deliver nuclear or chemical warheads weighting 550 kg.
According to some experts, the 9M21 rockets loaded with nuclear warheads were transported to Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962. Also the 9K52 Luna-M system was extensively used in a number of Warsaw Pact states and in the Middle East. Currently it serves with the armies of Russia, Ukraine, Syria, Afghanistan, Egypt and several other countries.

Trumpeter 1:35 - Sd. Kfz. 7/1 Half-track w/20mm Flakvierling 38 (Early version) - Plastic model kit #01523
The Flak 38 was a German 20mm anti-aircraft gun used throughout WWII and the most numerously produced German artillery piece of the period. The 20mm Flakvierling 38 auf Selbstfahrlafette (Sd. Kfz. 7/1) was the result of combining the 20mm Flakvierling 38 with four Flak 38 guns to the Sd. Kfz. 7 half-track to provide greater mobility and firepower. The Sd. Kfz. 7/1 carried 600 2cm rounds on board and 1800 rounds in the towed Sd. Ah. 56 trailer. The guns had the 360 degree traverse by hand and could be elevated from -10 to +100 degrees. The later versions also included an armoured cab for the better protection of the crews. The crew of 10 included a gun commander, eight gunners and a driver.
The first 100 vehicles were produced in 1940-1941 and production continued at a rate of 10 vehicles per month until August 1942, when the monthly rate was significantly increased. Around 800 vehicles were produced by December 1944. From 1942, most vehicles were fitted with lightly armoured driver cabs and a plate protecting the engine compartment. The armour was 8mm thick. These vehicles were issued to Flak units of the Luftwaffe and Panzer units of the Army. Sd. Kfz. 7/1 units were used to protect armoured units against low flying aircraft but were also successfully used against ground targets.
The kit represents an early version of the Sd.Kfz.7/1 with the central circular pivot mounting for the 20mm Flakvierling 38. Later versions had a normal ground mounting fitted to the rear bed which allowed the gun to be easily removed and mounted on the standard Flakvierling Sd. Ah. 52 trailer if necessary.

The 122mm howitzer M1938 (M-30) was a Soviet 121.92mm (4.8 inch) howitzer. The weapon was developed by the design bureau of Motovilikha Plants, headed by F. F. Petrov, in the late 1930s, and was in production from 1939 to 1955. The M-30 saw action in World War II, mainly as a divisional artillery piece of the Red Army (RKKA). Captured guns were also employed later in the conflict by the German Wehrmacht and the Finnish Army. After World War II the M-30 saw combat in numerous conflicts of the mid- to late twentieth century in service of other countries' armies, notably in the Middle East.

Trumpeter 1:35 - Soviet 122mm Howitzer D-30 (Early version) - Plastic model kit #02328
The Soviet 122mm Howitzer D-30 entered service in the 1960s. It was a relatively light and handy weapon, but heavy enough for sustained long range fire in the field. The D-30 had a maximum range of 15.4 kilometers, or over 21 km using RAP ammunition. With its striking three-leg stabilising system the D-30 could be rapidly traversed through 360 degrees.
The D-30 howitzer is no longer manufactured in the former Soviet Union nations, but is still produced internationally and is in service in more than 60 countries' armed forces.
The 2A18 gun is the primary weapon of the 2S1 self-propelled howitzer. There are also Egyptian, Chinese, and Syrian self-propelled variants and conversions. The Syrian conversion uses the hull of a T-34 tank.

Trumpeter 1:35 - Soviet 1K17 Szhatie - Plastic model kit #05542
The 1K17 Szhatie was a self-propelled laser vehicle created on a decline of the Soviet Union's existence. Its development based on the 2S19 Msta-S howitzer was aimed at enemy's optical electronic devices. An artificial ruby weighting 30 kg was embedded into the vehicle. The ruby was used in order to focalise the laser beam. Besides, silver coating of some optical elements helped to increase the beam strength. Despite the fact that the vehicle had passed all military tests, its expensive production along with the collapse of the Soviet Union made the Russian authorities consider its further manufacturing unprofitable. The Russian word "Сжатие" ("Szhatie") means "Compression".

Trumpeter 1:35 - Soviet JS-1 Heavy Tank - Plastic model kit #05587
The Soviet heavy tank JS-1, a modernised version of the KV-1 and KV-2 series, was put into service in the midst of the Second World War. High production rates and quick testing of the JS-1 resulted from the appearance of the newer German Panther and Tiger I tanks and the lack of adequate military equipment to fight against them. However, even after several modifications of its design, the JS-1 proved to be unsuccessful in combat because of its armament that was not strong enough to defeat German tanks. The JS-1 was soon replaced by the improved JS-2.
During the war, the JS-1 was also known as the JS-85, where "85" stood for the calibre of the tank gun, and "JS" - for Joseph Stalin (Russian: ИС - Иосиф Сталин). The JS-1 marked the beginning of the well-known "Joseph Stalin" tank line.

Trumpeter 1:35 - Soviet JS-2 Heavy Tank - Plastic model kit #05588
After it became clear that the JS-1 was incapable of destroying the German Tiger and Panther tanks, Soviet engineers came up with an upgraded model of the JS series - the JS-2 heavy tank. The production of the early version began in 1943 in Chelyabinsk. The JS-2 was equipped with the D-25T gun, also known as the 122 mm gun, with higher armour-piercing qualities. In addition, compared to the JS-1 and its prototype models of the KV series, the JS-2 had thicker front armour and a muzzle recoil compensator. Besides, it was much lighter and faster.
The JS-2 and Tiger I were able to hit each other at a range of less than 1,000 m which was an average combat distance. Moreover, due to high-explosive fragmentation shells of the D-25T gun the JS-2 could do severe damage to the heaviest German tanks even without piercing their armour.
The JS-2 first saw combat in February 1944 during the Korsun–Shevchenkovsky Offensive. In spring of the same year JS-2 tanks destroyed up to 40 German tanks (including Tiger Is), 10 anti-tank guns and several AFVs.
After the end of the war, the production of JS tanks continued and in the 1950's remaining JS-2 units were modified to a new JS-2M version. In the late 1960's, when heavy tanks were replaced with medium tanks, the JS vehicles were no longer in active service with the Red Army.

In addition, compared to the JS-1 and its prototype models of the KV series, the JS-2 had thicker front armour and a muzzle recoil compensator. Besides, it was much lighter and faster.
In 1944, the model was modernised once again and renamed the JS-2M. The changes mainly transformed the chassis construction; the transmission and fighting compartments were relocated to the back of the tank. Later the same modifications were made to almost all JS-2 tanks remaining after the war.

Trumpeter 1:35 - Soviet JS-4 Heavy Tank - Plastic model kit #05573
There were two Soviet tanks named JS-4: Object 245 JS-4 and Object 701 JS-4. The Object 245 was an improved version of the JS-2 armed with 100mm D-10T cannon. The other JS-4 tank was a new design developed by the Kirov Plant in Leningrad. Also based on the JS-2, the Object 701 featured a longer hull and an additional set of road wheels. It was powered by a better engine and equipped with thicker armour on both the hull and the turret. A 122mm gun was used as an armament. The engine cooling system of the tank was adopted from the German Panther tank of WWII.
Batch production of the JS-4 lasted from 1947 to 1949. It was ended due to the tank's low speed and mobility. Only 250 units were issued, most of which were sent to the Russian Far East.

Trumpeter 1:35 - Soviet KV-8S Heavy Tank - Plastic model kit #01572
The Soviet KV tanks were heavy tanks used by the Red Army during the Second World War. KV stood for Kliment Voroshilov, the Soviet politician and defense commissar. The KV tanks were famous for their heavy armour protection. The KV-1 was invulnerable to most German weapons except the 8.8cm Flak gun, until the Germans developed more effective guns. The KV-1 outclassed the French Char B1, which was the only other heavy tank in service at that time.
During the Winter War, the KV's proved to be highly resistant to Finnish anti-tank weapons, and the first order of 50 KV's was placed. However, the KV tank had serious flaws: it was difficult to steer, the transmission was unreliable, and the ergonomics were poor. These flaws were rectified with the introduction of the KV-1S. The KV-1S was lighter and had thinner armour and a smaller lower turret.
The KV-8S was based on the KV-1S and had an ATO-42 flamethrower (improved version of the ATO-41 used in the KV-1 and KV-8). However, after a few years it turned out that the expensive KV tanks could be replaced by the T-34 medium tanks which had a better performance. The KV series became a base for the development of the IS tanks (IS - Josif Stalin).

To achieve this, the model had a wide range of elevation angles and used separate loading with 13 different propellant loads. The ML-20 had both telescopic and panoramic sights. The ML-20 first saw combat in the Battle of Khalkhin Gol. It also participated in the Winter War and proceeded to be used throughout the Second World War. The ML-20 was used during WWII by the Soviet Army, and some of the guns were captured by the Germans and the Finnish Army. The ML-20 was also used after the end of World War II in a number of conflicts due to its excellent characteristics.

Trumpeter 1:35 - Soviet Object 268 Heavy Tank Prototype - Plastic model kit #05544
The Object 268 (Obiekt 268) was a Soviet tank destroyer manufactured at the Kirov Plant, Leningrad, in 1956. Its development was led by Joseph Kotin. The chassis of the Object 269 was designed on the basis of the T-10 heavy tank. The Object 268 was equipped with 152 mm M-64 cannon which ensured excellent penetration, high shooting accuracy and fast rate of fire. The tank destroyer successfully passed the tests, however it was never actually used on the battlefield because it lacked enough gun power to fight against newly-designed English Chieftain and American M60 Patton battle tanks.

Trumpeter 1:35 Soviet Project / Object 704 SPH Howitzer - Plastic model kit #TRU05575
As Soviet forces started to push German troops out of Russia, the armament factories were busy developing new military technology to counter the Panther and Tiger tanks and their various tank destroyer units. The ISU-152 series entered production in 1943 based on the KV-1 heavy tank chassis, armed with the ML-20 152.4mm gun howitzer. Despite these new variants being sent into combat, Soviet designers were immediately looking at new developments.
One of these experiments was the Object 704 which adopted the chassis features of the IS-2 and IS-3 tanks and was distinctive with its sloping armour and lower profile. Armed with the ML-20SM model 1944 gun-howitzer, with a barrel length of over 4.5 metres (29.6 calibers) and no muzzle brake, which further increased the firepower of the gun, the vehicle provided the best crew protection of all self-propelled guns in World War II. However, with a crew of five, a low ceiling in the fighting compartment, and the lack of muzzle brake, the workload was unbearable for the crew from the gun recoil. It had a maximum range of 13,000 metres. Only one prototype was built and it is on display in a Russian armour museum. The self-propelled gun carried 20 rounds of two piece (shell and charge) armour-piercing and high explosive ammunition. The secondary armament of the fighting vehicle consisted of two 12.7 x 108 mm DShK machine guns, one anti-aircraft and one co-axial.
The Object 704 self-propelled howitzer was designed to replace the ISU-152.
The overall height of the vehicle was reduced to 2240 mm, which was compensated with an increased width of the superstructure. The factory designation was Object 704. It was armed with the 152.4 mm ML-20SM
