Inside the Trumpeter 05536 1/35 PLZ-83A SPH: Scale Artillery Profile

The Trumpeter 05536 reproduces the 1/35 PLZ-83A Self-Propelled Howitzer with a focus on authentic form and surface detail. The kit reflects the PLZ-83A as adopted in the early 1980s and is aimed at modellers who value historical subject accuracy.

Context and Model Fidelity

The PLZ-83A is recognised for its robust gun system and hull configuration related to other 152-mm designs. This kit mirrors key visual features such as six pairs of roadwheels, the forward engine bay, and the sizeable rear turret, providing a faithful representation on the bench.

Kit Composition and Build Tips

Containing over 300 components, the set includes newly moulded parts for finer detail together with rubber tracks and etched brass items. Copper cable elements are supplied to boost realism. Due to the dense parts layout and small components, experienced modellers will get the best outcome.
