Description

This is an injection-plastic military vehicle model kit.

Here's what Revell has to say about the famed Katiusha: The multiple rocket launcher BM-13 ("Boyevaya Machina") was developed by Russian engineers in the spring of 1941 at the request of the Red Army. It was usually mounted on the ZIS 151 truck. The vehicle, popularly known as the "Katiusha" or the "Stalinorgel" was equipped with 16, 132 mm M-13 rockets with a range of 8.5 km. During World War II, Russia produced at least 10,000 of these BM-13 multiple rocket launchers. It was first used in combat on 14th July 1941 at Orcha. The psychological effect it produced on German military morale was devastating. The Red Army also used the "Stalinorgel" in the later defence of besieged Leningrad and in the counter-offensive at Stalingrad. In the later phases of World War II the troops who liberated Prague and Warsaw in support of the tank units, were equipped with the BM-13. A further 44 regiments took part in the final battle to take Berlin.
