Historical Mounted Equipment Model D
Recreate a piece of British World War II field equipment with Historical Mounted Equipment Model D. Designed for historically themed layouts and displays, this detailed resin model represents the practical, vehicle-mounted apparatus used by British forces to support mobile operations. Its compact format makes it suitable for both standalone presentation and integration with period vehicles, figures and scenery.
Historical Role
Mounted equipment played an important part in British wartime mobility, allowing specialist apparatus to be transported and deployed wherever it was required. Such installations supported the wider battlefield role of their carrier by keeping essential equipment accessible while reducing deployment time. This model is ideal for portraying the logistical and technical side of British operations without relying solely on front-line fighting vehicles.
Distinctive Appearance
The model’s defining feature is its purpose-built mounted arrangement, which gives it a clearly utilitarian wartime silhouette. The exposed equipment layout, compact proportions and functional supports distinguish it from ordinary cargo. These details help convey the improvised yet organised character associated with British field equipment during the Second World War.
Modelling Uses
Use Model D in British Army dioramas, workshop scenes, supply areas, field positions or vehicle parks. It can add period detail to model railways, complement transport columns in wargaming displays, or form part of a specialised collection of British World War II equipment. The range of scales supports everything from compact layouts to larger, highly detailed display pieces for collectors.
Fun Fact
The available scale range bridges several modelling traditions: 1:76 is closely associated with British railway modelling, while 1:87 is the widely used HO railway scale. This makes the model especially versatile for military and railway-based wartime scenes.
Available Scales
Available in 1:87, 1:76, 1:72, 1:48 and 1:35 scales.
Finish Options
Choose Cleaned Resin Grey for preparation and custom finishing, Grey Primed – Ready for Painting for a convenient painting surface, or Historical Base Colour for a period-inspired starting finish.
Very small details may vary slightly depending on the scale selected.
