Trumpeter 05568 1/35 SU-152 Late WWII Heavy Howitzer Scale Kit  [TP05568]

SU-152 replica built for serious scale modellers

The Soviet SU-152, nicknamed "Zveroboy" or beast killer, earned its reputation in World War II as a potent heavy howitzer on a KV-1S chassis. The Trumpeter 05568 1/35 kit captures that wartime role with model-level accuracy and is aimed at hobbyists who appreciate historical armour subjects.

Construction detail and authentic components

This static assembly kit contains over 460 parts and includes 192 separate track links to mirror the real vehicle. The model is supplied with a metal gun barrel and two photo-etched parts to lift fine surface detail. Finished dimensions measure 256.6mm long by 94.8mm wide, giving a substantial display footprint.

Why this kit is rewarding to build

The precise moulding and realistic fittings make the Trumpeter SU-152 a satisfying project for experienced builders and confident intermediate modellers. Careful assembly of individual track links and attention to painting and weathering will produce a convincing museum-style model.
