The Ya-12 is a Soviet tracked tractor developed in 1943 and widely used by the Red Army during World War II, primarily for towing artillery pieces such as the 85 mm D-44 or the 122 mm M-30 howitzer. Thanks to its compact dimensions, front-mounted engine, and durable construction, the Ya-12 proved itself both in offensive and defensive operations on the Eastern Front. This equipment not only performed well during river crossings and in difficult terrain, but also supported artillery logistics during major offensives, such as Operation Bagration and the Battle of Berlin.

The model consists of high-quality plastic components with realistic hull surface, running gear, and engine details.
