1/144 Morser Karl mit Railway Transport Carrier

This is a plastic model kit, which comes unassembled and unpainted. So glue, model paints and other basic modelling tools are additionally required.

The Morser Karl was a huge piece of weaponry that weighed a hefty 124 tons. The weapon's bulk meant it had to be transported around on a special two-piece set of railcars for long-distance travel. Using this transportation method, the whole mortar chassis was hung between two pedestal-mounted swivelling arms borne on five-axle bogies. Dragon's 1/144 Mini Armour series brings the Morser Karl and the railcars down to a wholly more manageable size in the latest kit release.
That means the accurate model self-propelled mortar comes with the two special railcars and, indeed, it is depicted slung between them. The kit is available in either a dark yellow or panzer gray plastic colour, so this will ease the job of the modeller should they be seeking a shortcut. To complete this impressive miniature scene, we include a suitable length of railway track as a special bonus. Straight from the box, model-makers can create a stunning diorama with one of the heaviest German weapons of the war. This item proves that small-scale kits can most certainly ignite the modeller's imagination!
