MiniArt 49002 GERMAN FUEL DRUMS 200L 1/48 – set of fuel barrels for WWII dioramas

MiniArt 49002 GERMAN FUEL DRUMS 200L 1/48 is a high-quality set of plastic fuel barrels in 1/48 scale, designed for demanding modelers building dioramas and military layouts from the World War II period. The set includes as many as 20 finely detailed 200-liter barrels, accurately replicating the German fuel containers commonly used by the Third Reich army.

Authenticity and historical application

The set features typical metal fuel drums, used by the Wehrmacht and Luftwaffe in theaters of war on all fronts of World War II (1939–1945). They were essential in every supply zone: at airfields, rail depots, tank workshops, in transport convoys, and frontline areas. Thanks to these, the resupply of military vehicles, aircraft, and the logistics of the German army functioned efficiently throughout the duration of the conflict.
