There's nothing gentle about the vehicle known officially as the "38cm RW61 auf Sturmmorser Tiger", a vehicle designed specifically to destroy buildings and strong-points. An enormous 38cm mortar was mounted in a fixed casemate atop a Tiger I chassis, instead of the usual turret-mounted 8.8cm gun. Interestingly, the massive mortar fired rocket-assisted ammunition, with vents in the wall of the gun tube designed to exhaust the gases forward. The 38cm weapon had a creditable maximum range of...

The Churchill, referred to officially as the Tank, Infantry, Mk IV (A22), was named after the British prime minister at the time of its design in WWII.

The first Churchills were hastily churning off Vauxhall production lines in June 1941, within a year of the tank's design in the aftermath of the humiliating Allied defeat in Europe. Various improvements occurred, with...

LVT-(A)1, Pacific Theater Operation 1945 (1:72) by Dragon Diecast ArmorItem Number: DRR60522 The American Landing Vehicle Tracked (LVT) was a vital weapon in the Allied island-hopping campaign in the Pacific theater during WWII.

This tiny island 800km east of the Philippines, now part of Palau, had to be captured to protect the American right flank. Many Landing Vehicles Tracked (LVT) were used in the initial amphibious assault, and so devastating was the Japanese resistance that 60 LVTs and...

Neubau-Fahrzeug Nr.2 Versuchsfahrzeug, Germany 1935 (1:72) by Dragon Diecast ArmorItem Number: DRR60572German's first attempts at creating a heavy tank commenced in the early 1930s. Known as the Neubau-Fahrzeug ('New Construction Vehicle__), it was not a success, however. Slow-moving and boasting multiple turrets, it was ill equipped for the type of rapid, mobile warfare that blitzkrieg tactics required. For this reason, only five Neubau-Fahrzeug heavy tanks were built by Rheinmetall-Borsig...

Dragon Armor is going to release a mightily impressive 1/72 scale VK.45.02(P)H prototype.

The model is finished in a typical late-war camouflage scheme of two colors, this being punctuated by the barest of extra markings in the form of Balkenkreuz. The VK.45.02(P) is beautifully painted and weathered, and the detail on the heavy tank prototype is very...
