Artillery Testing


A test range for artillery.


Two howitzers, one with a new mounting is getting a test.


A fire off between the standard issue howitzer and the one with the new mounting.


A special radar will track the shells for accuracy and muzzle velocity.


The troops wear special high visibility yellow uniforms for the test, so everyone is accounted for and safe.

    Mike:
    I haven't seen that jeep in AGES. That's an MPC one, right?
    And isn't one howitzer from the MARX collection?

    I DO have that tent though (an eBay find from a few years back)

    Carry on.

    Good eye G. Jeep is MPC, as is the tent.
    One howitzer is a Marx recast, the other on the fixed mount is an Ideal recast.

    Tip, use golf tees if you run out of tent poles.

    Thanks for reading.
