Copper State Models 5,7cm Gruson Fahrpanzer (1/35)
The 5,7cm Gruson Fahrpanzer was a unique German armoured gun turret developed in the late 19th century for both fortress and field defence roles. Mounted on a small wheeled chassis, it could be transported by horse or rail and deployed into prepared positions for use as a mobile fortress gun. This 1/35 scale kit from Copper State Models captures the distinctive armoured dome, riveted construction, and compact design of the Fahrpanzer, making it an intriguing subject for military history enthusiasts and diorama builders.
- 1/35 scale highly detailed plastic model kit
- Accurate replication of the armoured turret and rivet detail
- Includes detailed 5,7cm cannon assembly
- Ideal for late 19th century and WWI dioramas
- Suitable for intermediate and advanced modellers
History:
The Gruson Fahrpanzer was designed by the German Grusonwerk company in the 1890s as a mobile armoured turret to enhance fortress and field defences. The compact armoured shell provided full protection for its crew while housing a 5,7cm fortress gun. Easily transportable, it was deployed to fortifications throughout Germany and saw service in various European armies. Though largely obsolete by the First World War, many remained in use for static defence, representing a fascinating transitional stage in the evolution of armoured warfare.
