Their primary task was to support infantry in capturing heavily fortified enemy positions, including bunkers and strongpoints, where the use of a flamethrower provided a psychological advantage. The 45mm gun was mounted in the turret in a slightly modified configuration to maintain the ability to fire at lightly armored targets. These tanks were used, among others, during fighting on the Eastern Front, in the area of Stalingrad and Kursk.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct characteristics:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/35\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDedicated for KV-8 and KV-8S models (USSR, World War II)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-grade turned brass – guaranteeing durability and a realistic look\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures excellent detail in rifling and muzzle ends, faithfully depicting the original details of the 45mm Model 1932 gun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect replacement for plastic barrels from kits, eliminating the issues of flash, seams, and parting lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCategory: metal barrel – accessories for plastic models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWe recommend this product:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Aber 35L-052 barrel significantly raises the realism of any model and is recommended for both advanced and intermediate modelers seeking premium accessories for their workshop.
