MiniArt 35455 U.S. RADIO SET SCR-299 1/35

The MiniArt 35455 U.S. RADIO SET SCR-299 model in 1/35 scale is an exceptionally detailed plastic assembly kit depicting the legendary American radio set SCR-299—a key element of Allied communications during World War II. This component was widely used by the United States Army, primarily between 1942 and 1945, serving an indispensable role on battlefields such as Normandy, during the Battle of the Bulge, and in operations in Italy. The SCR-299 radio station was mostly mounted on GMC CCKW trucks and other vehicles, serving as a command and coordination center for frontline units.

The presented kit includes top-quality plastic parts that accurately reproduce not only the radio itself, but also all the details of its accompanying equipment. Meticulously crafted control panels, cable sets, microphones, and power supplies allow modelers to build an impressively realistic diorama of a wartime communications post or command center. A significant advantage of this kit is the inclusion of photo-etched (PE) parts, which let you highlight the tiniest details of the device, while the decals enable faithful recreation of technical and operational markings.
