Das Werk 1/35 3cm Flakvierling 103/38 Plastic Model Kit [DW35004]

SKU: DWK35004 | Brand: DasWerk | Product: Daswerk 1/35 3cm Flakvierling 103/38 Plastic Model Kit 35004 This 1/35 scale plastic model depicts the Mk103/38, a late-war quad-gun battery mounting four Mk103 3cm cannons manufactured by Rheinmetall Borsig. The Mk103 was an electrically-fired, recoil and gas-operated automatic weapon capable of engaging air and ground targets, delivering 280 rounds per minute with high explosive ammunition or 420 rounds per minute with armor-piercing rounds. The original experimental four-gun configuration suffered structural limitations, as the mounting had been adapted from the lighter 2cm Flak 38 design, resulting in excessive vibration affecting both equipment and crew performance. Includes four historical decal options: Unknown Unit (Ardennes, September 1945), Rheinmetall Test Range Unterlüß (1945), Unknown Unit (Potsdam, May 1945), and Unknown Unit (Seelow Heights, April 1945). Assembly, paints, and adhesive are not included.
