Italeri 6573 - 1/35 Sturmmorser Tiger Model Kit

The Italeri 6573 model kit offers enthusiasts a chance to recreate the formidable Sturmmorser Tiger, a unique piece of World War II history. This 1/35 scale model accurately captures the essence of the German Army's tactical innovation during the war, where the need for heavy artillery in close combat situations led to the development of this specialized tank.

Historical Context and Modeling Appeal

During World War II, the German Army faced challenges in overcoming fortified positions without risking their own troops. The Sturmmorser Tiger was engineered to address this, mounting a powerful 38 cm mortar on the robust Tiger tank chassis. Despite its short range, the mortar's firepower was unmatched, making the Sturmtiger a formidable force on the battlefield. With only a few units produced, primarily deployed on the Western Front in 1944, this model kit brings a rare piece of military history into your collection.

Craftsmanship and Display Value

This Italeri kit provides builders with a choice between glueable rubber tracks or link-and-length tracks, allowing for a customizable build experience. The inclusion of decals for two different versions and a color instruction sheet enhances the realism and authenticity of the final model. Whether displayed alongside other military vehicles or as a standalone piece, the Sturmmorser Tiger is sure to be a highlight in any collection.
