On March 28, 1942, a joint operation was undertaken by the Navy and the British Commandos to render the large dry dock of the French port of Saint Nazaire, occupied by German forces, unusable. The operation was given the code name of "Chariot". The port was, in fact, an important support point for Kriegsmarine's operations in the Atlantic. The operation was carried out by some torpedo fighters and a flotilla of motor lances destined for the transport of commandos.
The operation was successful and the dry dock was damaged and rendered unusable until the end of the war. A decisive role was assigned to fast light assault vehicles. MTB 74, which participated in the action, it was specially modified by the Royal Navy shipyards by moving the two torpedo launchers to the front position and was equipped with silencers at the exhausts to act unnoticed.
This kit contains the seven figures from Italeri's MTB crew set

The T-34 tank is certainly one of the most famous armoured vehicles of the Second World War and represented the backbone of the Soviet Armed Forces during the conflict. The main innovations introduced by T-34 were the angled front armour capable of guaranteeing greater protection against the blows received and the adoption of wide tracks ideal for obtaining good mobility on any type of terrain.
This kit comes with six marking choices for several T-37/76's
The first T-34s, armed with a 76 mm short-barreled cannon, immediately acquired an operational advantage against the most popular German tanks of the time such as the Panzer III and Panzer IV. Thanks to its 12-cylinder and 500 HP diesel engine it was able to reach a maximum speed of 55 km / h. It is considered by many historians, for operational efficiency, to be the best tank of the Second World War.
