Trumpeter 02345 Soviet Limber 52-R-353M Mod.1942 is a high-quality plastic model kit in the renowned 1:35 scale, which faithfully reproduces the Soviet WWII artillery limber. This type of limber, designated 52-R-353M, was introduced to service in the Red Army in 1942 and was widely used on all fronts of the conflict. The primary task of this vehicle was towing light and medium field guns, as well as transporting ammunition and equipment for the gun crews.

The model's construction is based on original archival plans, allowing meticulous representation of detailed elements such as the chassis, hinges, frame details, and the coupling mechanism connecting the limber to the towed artillery. The kit consists of over 80 detailed parts, including newly designed components and realistic rubber tires – a feature that sets this Trumpeter kit apart from the competition in terms of realism and final build quality.

The set also includes a chemically etched photo-etched metal fret, which enables the reproduction of fine construction elements and details such as fittings or smaller handles.
