Soviet Grenadier with PPSh-41
Bring dynamic Red Army infantry action to your World War II collection with this detailed Soviet Grenadier armed with the iconic PPSh-41 submachine gun. Designed for historically themed scenes, the figure represents a frontline soldier equipped for close-range combat and grenade attacks during the hard-fought campaigns of the Eastern Front.
Historical Role
Soviet infantrymen carrying the PPSh-41 were particularly effective in assaults, trench fighting and urban combat, where the weapon’s high rate of fire provided considerable short-range firepower. Grenades were essential for clearing dugouts, buildings and fortified positions. Soldiers equipped in this manner could support a rifle section or take part in dedicated submachine-gun assault groups, especially during the Red Army’s later-war offensives.
Distinctive Appearance
The figure is defined by the PPSh-41’s instantly recognisable perforated barrel shroud, wooden stock and compact profile. Its field uniform, practical equipment and grenadier stance create a purposeful frontline appearance suited to active combat scenes rather than ceremonial display.
POSE SET
This product receives the POSE SET badge because two exposed printable STL variants are available in the source folder. These alternatives provide additional flexibility when arranging infantry groups, allowing repeated figures to be presented with greater visual variety.
Modelling Uses
Ideal for Eastern Front dioramas, model railways, wargaming displays and collectors, this Soviet grenadier can be placed in street fighting, trench assaults, defensive positions or advancing infantry formations. The broad scale selection makes the figure suitable for compact railway layouts, tabletop scenes and larger display-quality military models.
Fun Fact
The PPSh-41 became one of the most recognisable Soviet weapons of World War II. Its robust construction and strong close-range performance made it particularly valuable in the confined spaces of major urban battles.
