The DUKW, also known as the "Duck", was an amphibious truck developed by the United States during World War II. This vehicle played a key role in amphibious operations in Europe and the Pacific, being used, among other places, during the Normandy landings in 1944 as well as in supply operations. Its ability to move both on land and water made it an extremely versatile logistics tool. Mounting a 105 mm howitzer on it enabled not only the transport of soldiers and equipment, but also provided fire support in challenging combat conditions.

The Eduard 35687 photo-etched frets replicate even the finest structural elements and details such as brackets, handles, securing straps, or panels. This ensures that the Italeri model gains an authentic appearance and realism that is difficult to achieve using only plastic parts.

We recommend this product to experienced modelers and everyone who wants their DUKW with 105 mm howitzer replica to look perfect both on a collector’s shelf and at a model contest. The photo-etched parts are precise and require skill in working with small components, making the Eduard 35687 set the ideal choice for enthusiasts who strive for true realism and historical detail.
