Product Description

This box-shaped vehicle features an eye-catching 106mm recoilless rifle

[About the actual car]
The M113 is a troop carrier developed by the United States after the war.
After it was officially adopted in 1960, it gained popularity due to its ease of use and reliability.
The vehicle's body is made of aluminum armor and weighs less than 13 tons, allowing it to be dropped into the air and run on water.
It also had a crew of two and could accommodate 11 soldiers in the cabin.
The suspension was equipped with a torsion bar, giving it a top speed of 64km/h.
In addition to being a basic troop transport vehicle, various derivatives were also produced based on this body, including mortar-equipped models, missile launcher models, and command vehicles.
The breadth of development is also a testament to the excellent basic design.
Since its initial deployment, it has undergone continuous updates and remains in active service, operating not only in the United States but also in approximately 50 countries around the world.
It became a masterpiece vehicle, with over 80,000 units produced, including derivative models.

The body is modeled with an accurate depiction of the basic shape, and the front trim vanes are 3D printed parts that can be assembled in either extended or retracted position.
