Russian A222 Coastal Defense Gun, 1/35 - Trumpeter 01036

The Trumpeter 01036 recreates the Russian self-propelled coastal defense gun A-222 Bereg in 1/35. This plastic kit represents an imposing coastal artillery system mounted on an eight-wheeled road chassis, featuring a 130 mm piece.

The A-222 Bereg is a self-propelled artillery system designed for coastal defense. Its architecture combines a heavy wheeled vehicle with a turret armed with a 130 mm naval AK-130 gun. The subject is an original choice for a collection dedicated to contemporary Russian military vehicles, artillery, or coastal defense equipment.

At a 1/35 scale, the assembled model measures about 374 mm long and 92 mm wide. The replica includes more than 1,000 parts and allows you to work on a rich set of mechanical details, including the running gear, transmission, suspension, and the cabin. The clear glazing contributes to the depiction of the interior.

Assembly requires careful preparation of the many parts and methodical work by sub-assemblies. Suitable plastic cement, precision tools, fine sandpaper, and a model primer will make assembly and painting easier. Weathering can then be used to highlight the chassis contours, the tires, the turret, and exterior equipment.
