The WC-51 “Beep” ¾-ton multipurpose vehicle was developed by order of the U.S. Army and produced from 1942 until 1945, and the Soviet Union received 24,902 units via Lend-Lease. The WC-51 was used for just about everything, including a weapons carrier, command car, artillery tractor for antitank guns, reconnaissance, and troop transport.

The new Zvezda 1/35 scale WC-51 plastic model kit’s parts are finely molded with hardly any flash. The box art is helpful for parts placement and painting, and the full-color painting diagram shows markings for versions in U.S., Soviet, and Free French army service. The 8-page instruction booklet illustrates 37 assembly steps, but decal placement is entirely on the painting diagram.
