Trumpeter 09505 1/35 SU-101 SPA Kit Introduction

The Trumpeter 1/35 Soviet SU-101 Self-Propelled Artillery model represents a prototype armoured vehicle from the late war period. The kit is aimed at model builders who want to recreate a historically informed concept piece rather than a production vehicle.

Construction Advice and Presentation

Builders will find the 1/35 scale provides good detail but calls for careful assembly. Follow the step sequence and perform test fits to avoid alignment issues. A neat paint job and weathering will significantly improve the model's realism for cabinet display or a diorama base.

Historical Context and Realism

The SU-101 design reflects efforts to increase battlefield mobility and firepower during development stages. Even though it did not see service, the concept influenced later armoured thinking, and this kit lets modellers explore that design evolution.
