Latil TAR 4x4 & GPF 155
Scale: 1/72 It's model of famous GPG 155 gun towed by tractor 4x4 Latil TAR (both built of Al.By kit). This action takes place in Picardy, where the French army helps British forces to stop the German attacks in March-April 1918. The French guns are effective during the battle and the German general Luddendorff would have say : "I hate the French artillery !" In 1914, the French heavy artillery did not exist ! But a lot of big guns are made from 1915 to 1918, like the GPF, to catch again delay. When the WW began the German heavy artillery was the best but after several years it was equalized by the French and also British artilleries in 1917-1918. The Scottish soldier and the French driver are of course transformed Preiser figurines. |
