WIP: Russian Tank Destroyer SU-122



The SU-122 (from Samokhodnaya Ustanovka 122 mm) was a Soviet self-propelled howitzer or assault gun used during World War II. The number "122" in the designation represents the caliber of the main armament—a 122 mm M-30S howitzer. The chassis was that of the T-34. from Wikipedia

I got this model along with 3 other models from Dragon's plastic figures line. Painted with oils, acrylics and inks. The 1st Airborne Division was a military formation that was raised and fought during World War II. It suffered terrible casualties throughout the operations it undertook, especially during the Battle of Arnhem, the operation which made the division famous for its defence of Arnhem Bridge. The division was the first to use the maroon beret, now an internationally recognised symbol of elite airborne forces.  The distinctive maroon beret of the Parachute Regiment was first worn by the men of the Regiment when it went into action in North Africa in ...
