Academy 13402 1/72 U.S. 2 Ton 6x6 Cargo Truck Scale Kit with WWII Accessories  [AC-13402]

Academy 13402 1/72 U.S. 2 TON 6X6 Cargo Truck - WWII Ground Vehicle Set

The Academy 13402 model captures the U.S. 2 TON 6X6 Cargo Truck at 1/72 scale with carefully moulded components that reflect wartime utility. The kit includes accessory parts to enrich vignettes and lends itself to modestly sized dioramas where authenticity matters.

Background and Modelling Interest

As a workhorse in World War II logistics, the 2 TON 6X6 helped move supplies and personnel across rough routes. This kit reproduces key features of the truck so modellers can study and replicate period equipment and cargo arrangements. Building the kit is a good exercise in fine-scale assembly and historical research.

Scale Handling and Presentation

At 1/72 the model is compact while still showing useful detail, ideal for display cases or crowded shelves. Assembly is engaging and requires steady hands for small fittings. Finished examples integrate well with other 1/72 figures and vehicles to illustrate supply chain scenes.
