1/32 M552-198 Renwal Skysweeper 75mm Anti-Aircraft Gun - M51 (D48)
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: VG+
First issue and fantastic kit with 134 parts. It features almost all the moving features of the real weapon and a crew of five. Never started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions present. The Skysweeper was a 45 round-per-minute anti-aircraft gun system that was teamed with the Nike Ajax in the late 1950s/early 1960s to defend America against Soviet Attack. The gun system was radar controlled and fully mobile. It could be set up on any terrain and ready to fire in 2 minutes. The unit was considered very advanced and complex at the time; it took army maintenance crews 37 weeks each to train on the system at Aberdeen.
