Description

The 2 Ton. Dukw 353 produced by Italeri in 1/35 scale assembly kit, is classified in Scale Models - Military Series - Armored Cars

This big triple shaft amphibian vehicle was created during the second World War the American armed forces. The goal was to build an automobile to provide ammunition, meals and materials - kept within the holds of transport vessels - to invading troops occupying beachheads on enemy soil just after landing. The DUKW offered good navigating qualities and may go well off-road too, which, coupled with its high load capacity, enabled it to execute its logistic role to the full. Within the post-war years, it was popular by USA's allies completely towards the 70s, including civil protection projects.
