Academy 13403 1/72 U.S. WWII Ambulance and Tow Truck Collectors Kit  [AC-13403]

Academy 13403 - 1/72 U.S. Ambulance & Tow Truck WWII Ground Vehicle Set - collectors edition

The Academy 13403 modelling kit recreates the U.S. army ambulance together with a tow truck from the Second World War in compact 1/72 scale. It is aimed at collectors and modellers who want accurate, display-ready support vehicles for historical layouts.

Support Vehicle History and Display Use

These vehicles fulfilled crucial support functions in wartime operations, from casualty transport to vehicle recovery. The miniature pair captures that service aspect, offering authentic shapes and fittings that pair well with other 1/72 military subjects on a mantel or in cabinets.

Construction Details and Recommended Approach

Academy's moulding yields fine detail on small components; careful trimming and a patient assembly process are recommended. Use suitable adhesives and scale-appropriate brushes, then apply paint and light weathering to emphasise panel lines and fixtures.
