1:35 German Heavy Self-Propelled Howitzer Hummel

1/35 German Heavy Self-Propelled Howitzer Hummel (Late Production)

Here comes the Hummel! This German WWII self-propelled gun – whose name translates to “bumblebee” – now joins the 1/35 Military Miniature Series.
The Hummel was designed to fulfil demand for mobile artillery support for German tank units. Based upon the Geschützwagen III/IV (also used on the Nashorn), it sported an L/30 15cm howitzer and open top fighting compartment.

Hummels were designed in 1942 and debuted on the Eastern Front in 1943; they were also seen in North-West Europe and Italy in the latter half of WWII.
