MENG SPS-026 1:35 Scale Russian Light AA Gun Set

Product Description The ZPU-1, ZPU-2, ZPU-4 and ZU-23-2 light anti aircraft guns were developed by the Soviet Union and are still in use. The 14.5mm ZPU AA guns entered service in the early 1950's. There are three variants on different gun carriages: single barrel ZPU-1, twin barrel ZPU-2 and quan barrel ZPU-4. The Chinese built versions of the ZPU-2 and ZPU-4 are Type 58 AA gun and Type 56 AA gun, respectively. The 23mm twin barrel ZU-23-2 and the ZPU family AA guns greatly improved the low altitude air defence and suppressing light armoured ground targets. Because of their light weight, easy operation and low cost, they are widely used by many armed forces as fire support weapons, especially in hot spots in Africa and the Arab world. They can easily be fitted onto various platforms as a highly effective mobile fire support weapon.
