Eduard 35575 British 155mm AS-90 SPH mesh 1/35 Trumpeter – photo-etched detail set

The compact, precise Eduard 35575 British 155mm AS-90 SPH mesh 1/35 photo-etched accessory set is designed specifically as an enhancement for the British AS-90 self-propelled howitzer plastic model in 1/35 scale by Trumpeter. This high-quality set has been created by the renowned manufacturer Eduard, known for producing advanced model accessories that elevate the realism of scale models to a new level.

The AS-90 is a British 155mm self-propelled howitzer, introduced into service with the British Army in the early 1990s. It was widely used during conflicts, including operations in the Balkans and Iraq during modern engagements, forming the backbone of the United Kingdom’s artillery forces during the Cold War era and in 21st-century conflicts. The 1/35 AS-90 model is valued among modellers for its detail and customization potential.

This Eduard set is a single-sheet photo-etched metal detail set, manufactured using an exceptionally precise chemical etching process. This provides the modeller with mesh and detail pieces made from very thin metal, faithfully reproducing the original grilles, shields, and ventilation meshes of this self-propelled howitzer—features impossible to authentically render using classic plastic parts. The set is especially recommended for those seeking the highest level of detail and realism.

We recommend this product to all intermediate and advanced modellers seeking to enrich their AS-90 model with an unparalleled level of detail not achievable with plastic parts alone. The set requires basic skills in handling metal elements, such as cutting and bending thin sheets, so the recommended assembly difficulty is level 3/5. The Eduard 35575 set will showcase the authenticity and realistic appearance of the British howitzer on any display or diorama.
