Riich Models RV35018 British Ordnance QF 6 pdr Mk IV Anti-Tank Gun and Mk 1a (1/35)

The Riich Models RV35018 kit depicts the British Ordnance QF 6 pdr Mk IV anti-tank gun along with its Mk 1a version in the popular 1/35 scale. The set is intended for advanced modelers demanding detailed reproduction and high-quality detailing. It is a faithful miniature of the historical gun that played a key role in Allied land operations during World War II.

The 6-pounder (57 mm) anti-tank guns were developed in the United Kingdom and entered service in 1942, replacing older 2-pounder models. They were used by the British, Canadian, and Allied armies during battles in North Africa, Italy, France, and on the Western Front. The Mk IV model and the Mk 1a variant differed mainly in barrel length and some minor design changes. The QF 6-pdr Mk IV gun became famous during the Normandy invasion in 1944, effectively countering German medium tanks and light armored vehicles. It was the standard armament for British anti-tank companies from 1942 until the end of the war.

This Riich Models kit is made of high-quality plastic, ensuring precise and sharp details. The set includes a richly detailed replica of the gun with movable elements such as wheels and elevation and traverse mechanisms. This is a plastic model kit — when assembled, it measures approx. 15 cm in length. The box also contains small details such as ammunition boxes and options to set the gun in combat or transport position. The manufacturer did not include photo-etched parts or metal barrels – the entire kit relies on the high precision of the injection-molded sprues.

This model is ideal both as a standalone miniature and as part of a diorama depicting Allied battle scenes from World War II. It is primarily dedicated to intermediate and advanced modelers (difficulty level 3/5) due to the need for precise assembly and the option of painting historical details. The kit does not include glue or paints. This product is recommended for military history enthusiasts and collectors of World War II artillery models.
