About the Trumpeter 07274 Sturmtiger Assault Mortar Kit

The Trumpeter 07274 captures the Sturmtiger, a rare World War II assault mortar based on the Tiger I chassis and fitted with a 38cm Raketenwerfer 61 L/5.4 launcher. With very few originals built, the vehicle remains an intriguing subject for military modellers and historians.

Operational Background and Modelling Appeal

Employed by specialised Panzer Sturm-Morser-Kompanien on the Western Front, the Sturmtiger provided concentrated short-range fire. The model offers builders a chance to recreate a distinctive wartime vehicle with a compact footprint and clear display presence.

Beginners can build it with care, but the small parts and detail work make it better suited to those with some modelling experience or a willingness to learn fine techniques.
Basic modelling tools such as fine cutters, hobby knife, tweezers and precision glue are essential. Fine sandpaper and a small file will help clean up parts from the sprues.
The decals are supplied for Germany Army markings typical of the era; check photos if you want to match a specific unit or theatre of operations.
