This was the American's WI Anti-aircraft vehicle. But as the Luftwaffe was no longer a threat it was mostly used against ground troops. It was rather good that as it was 4 fifty caliber machine guns mounted in the back of a half-track. The guns were on a powered turret with a gunner inside. There were crewmen who changed the magazines. The turret was the M45 Quadmount. The halftrack was retired in the late 1950s but the Quadmount lived on in the Vietnam where it was mounted on the back of a truck.
Anyway I found this to be quite the attractive model with a simulated whitewash winter camo. Plus the usual nice details. It is a combination model and diecast.
