About product

1:35 ZU-23-2 — ammunition boxes (Lithokraft)

A 3D-printed resin set in 1:35 scale. It holds the ammunition boxes for the Soviet ZU-23-2 twin anti-aircraft cannon, the prominent containers from which both guns are belt-fed. It is a detail accessory, not a kit of the weapon or of a vehicle. The boxes suit the twin cannon itself just as well as loose cargo on the bed of a pickup or a truck, or a diorama around a gun position.

The real subject

The ZU-23-2 is a Soviet towed twin anti-aircraft cannon with two barrels of 23 mm caliber, introduced in 1960. It is among the most widespread weapons of its class and still turns up all over the world, often mounted on the beds of trucks and off-road pickups. Each of the two guns is belt-fed from its own ammunition box, and because the boxes hang in brackets on the sides of the carriage, they are clearly visible on a model.

Building and painting tips

Wash the parts in lukewarm soapy water. Cut the print supports off with a sharp scalpel and level the pads with a sanding sponge. Glue with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue). Paint the boxes a uniform green or sand according to the scene you are building, and then let them take a beating: scuffed edges with a metal pigment, handling marks with a dark wash and fine dust low down. It is the worn box that turns a static model into a weapon in use.

Who the set is for

  • modelers of modern equipment and weapons in 1:35
  • builders of dioramas with an anti-aircraft gun position
  • anyone after loose cargo for a vehicle bed
  • more advanced modelers with resin experience

This is an accessory for the model. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

A Soviet towed twin anti-aircraft cannon of 23 mm caliber, introduced in 1960. It is still in use all over the world, often mounted on the bed of a truck or a pickup.

The manufacturer does not state the number; check it on the packaging. The weapon needs one box for each of its two barrels, so a pair is the basic arrangement.

Yes, they are commonly placed as cargo on a vehicle bed or in a scene around a firing position. In both cases a thorough patina helps them.
