Trumpeter 02344 1/35 Soviet 122mm Howitzer M-30 1938 Late Version Summary

This Trumpeter 1/35 Soviet 122mm Howitzer 1938 M-30 Late Version kit recreates a notable Soviet gun with clear moulded components and accurate proportions. It appeals to modellers who favour historical subjects and authentic presentation.

Historical Context and Scale Representation

The M-30 was extensively used in various theatres and this late variant shows the incremental design tweaks found in later production. The model reflects the overall layout and recognisable features of the original howitzer.

Detailing and Recommended Finish

Well defined parts provide a strong base for painting and weathering to lift details and create a realistic finish. Careful preparation during assembly will help the model display convincingly alongside other period pieces.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Material: High-quality plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Paint: Not included; recommended for enhanced realism

What makes the late version different from earlier M-30 kits?

The late version reflects service updates and fittings added in later production runs. This kit shows those visual differences in parts and layout compared with earlier production examples.

Which glue types work best for this plastic kit?

Use standard polystyrene plastic cement for most joins and a small amount of cyanoacrylate for tiny or load bearing parts. Test fit pieces before applying adhesive for best results.

Are decals or markings included for unit identification?

The kit focuses on structural parts and surface detail; check the box contents for included decals. If specific unit markings are not supplied, aftermarket decal sheets can provide period correct insignia.
