Italeri 6392 - 1/35 DUKW Amphibious Truck: A Compact Historical Model

The Italeri 6392 1/35 DUKW model captures the versatile amphibious transport used extensively during World War II. Designed to travel between ship and shore, the DUKW is a classic subject for military modelling and provides a compact but informative project for modellers interested in landing operations.

Operational Background and Modelling Interest

The DUKW earned its nickname Duck for its amphibious ability, moving troops and supplies without port infrastructure. Assembling the Italeri 6392 kit offers insight into wartime logistics and a hands on appreciation of how these vehicles were configured for coastal operations.

Detailed Parts for Realistic Builds

Parts in this kit reproduce key DUKW features like the hull profile and open cargo bay, suitable for display or as part of a beachhead vignette. The model provides enough detail to satisfy modellers who like to add weathering and extra fittings for authenticity.
