Trumpeter 1/35 JGSDF Type 75 Howitzer Model Overview

The Trumpeter 1/35 scale JGSDF Type 75 155mm Self-Propelled Howitzer kit lets military model builders recreate a classic Japanese artillery vehicle. Originating in the 1970s, the Type 75 combined mobility and firepower for the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force. This plastic kit focuses on accurate shapes and small details to produce a convincing museum-style model when finished.

Operational Role and Scale Fidelity

Modellers will find finely moulded components that reflect the howitzer's structure and complex fittings, giving the finished build historical credibility.
