After the  artillery has finished their brutal bombardments, the frontovik move in to take on the remains of the disheartened enemy platoons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 122mm howitzer was designed by the OKB under the head of F. F. Petrov shortly before World War II to replace the obsolescent World War I models. The trials of the new weapon were completed in late 1938. In the September 1939 the new howitzer M-30 became the standard divisional howitzer of Red Army. More than 13,500 were made during World War II.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 152mm obr 1943 Howitzer was developed as a hybrid using the carriage of the 122 mm obr 1938 howitzer and a barrel of the 152mm obr 1938. This adaptation significantly increased the firepower and breakthrough abilities of Red Army shock units just in time for Operation Bagration. Over 2,800 guns were produced from 1943-1949, and it was extensive service in the Soviet army. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHIS PRODUCT CONTAINS:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4x 122mm or 152mm Howitzer Gun Teams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eSupplied unassembled and unpainted.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Battlefront","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48460156109051,"sku":"BF-SBX75","price":69.75,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0777\/6239\/6411\/files\/sbx75_1.jpg?v=1773879007","url":"https:\/\/warandpeacegames.com.au\/products\/flames-of-war-soviet-heavy-artillery-battery","provider":"War and Peace Games","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
