British 7.2

The 7.2″ howitzer was Britain’s main heavy gun throughout WWII. This model shows it on its early carriage, inherited from its previous WWI incarnation as the 8″ howitzer — it was later put on the four-wheeled split-trail carriage from the US 155mm “Long Tom”, which was better able to control the massive recoil of the charges used.

The model is designed at 15mm (1:100) scale, but will resize okay to 20mm (1:72) or 28mm (1:56). The large chocks used in an attempt to keep the gun in roughly the right place are supplied as their own STL, and will need to be printed twice.
