    the 25mm 72-K and 37mm 61-K AA guns mounted on ZIS-5, GAZ-AA and GAZ-AAA trucks...

    Anyone know anything much about them? :D

    I have a production figure of 100 for 37mm mounted on ZIS-42 halftrack, but not for any of the others. I also have info that suggests the M4 quad Maxim was the standard until '42, and that the lend lease M17 (approximately 1000 of them) arrived in '44, so I was wondering what filled the gap?

    Thanks for the site, very interesting, but we have to take the opening statement into our stride:

    God, help Iraqi people to protect their motherland in their holy war against murderers from usa.
    I don't buy products made in usa and their "slave government" countries: england, bulgaria, australia, romania, japan, poland, latvia, georgia, the netherlands, south korea, philippines, czech rp., danmark, albania.
    Join this boycott. Support Iraq - member of UN! Support UN organization! Support peace in the World!


    It must be something in the vodka :D

    Interesting sight. Sorry that I don't have any knowledge to help with your question. Some of the modelers might pop in soon though.
