BM-13 Katyusha (ZIS-6) - 440 pieces (World War II Historical Collection)
Katyusha was a family of Soviet-made rocket launchers. Their combat use has been documented since mid-1941. Despite the low accuracy of the rockets, the shelling of the enemy position with the use of Katyushas was very effective thanks to its concentration on a relatively small area and the sheer number of rockets. Also, the shrill sound of launching missiles caused a justified panic in the ranks of the enemy. It is not without reason that the Germans called these weapons "Stalin's Organs.” The BM-13 model was a rail-mounted rocket launcher mounted on the chassis of ZIS cars. The M-13 missiles were mounted in two rows, and their range, depending on the version, was over 9 kilometers.
The set of the famous BM-13 KATYUSHA rocket launcher was developed in a 1:35 scale that fits the COBI figures and consists of 440 building blocks. The use of the latest elements from the COBI catalog allowed faithful reproduction of the characteristic shapes of the original vehicle. The functionalities of the model are rotating wheels equipped with tires, adjustable launcher angle, opening vehicle cabin and detachable rockets!
All graphic elements are high-quality prints. The figures represent Soviet soldiers from the launcher service. Both officer and enlisted figures have detailed prints on the back as well. The set includes a plate with the name of the launcher printed on it. Our 1:35 scale collection isn’t complete without this set! Katyusha is one of the most recognizable and distinctive weapons used during the Second World War. Experienced builders will certainly use the truck chassis to build other variants of World War II vehicles in 1:35 scale. Build history, piece by piece, with COBI!
Including WWI, WWII, the Vietnam War, and more, these military vehicle replicas make unique toys and displays. The combat vehicle sets resemble specific tanks, jeeps, planes, and ships that have been used in both sides of war through modern history. The models are made of interlocking plastic bricks, pre-printed with logos and identification markings. The sets vary in difficulty level, and piece count and are great for interactive and imaginative play. COBI bricks are compatible with other brick construction brands. ~ Brianna
The World War II set features tanks, aircraft, ships, and other vehicles of both American and German sides of combat. Each set includes one or more characters which match the theme and ranking of the vehicle. Also available are figure sets featuring a variety of uniformed men with weapons.
