The 37mm AA gun is the Zvezda plastic kit built straight from the box. In
response to a transport shortage my gunners have 'liberated' an Airfix Opel
Blitz and 're-branded' it to reflect the change of ownership.
The gun barrel is very thin and ever so slightly bendy, but it is a very nice model - for wargames purposes easily as good as the rather similar Airfix Bofors gun.

Very nice. Are those wee black squares magnetic for unit labels?
Very nice work, great units!

Very nice, I wonder how similar the Soviet 37mm is to the Bofors 40mm? Like the 'liberated' Blitz.
Is this the celebrated unit that saved Comrade General Wallmanski's bacon at Kirov, or was that an 85mm?
