Bruno - 28 cm SK L/40 Railway Gun
SGD 937.50# BKM441 Remark: due to the extra discounted price this set will only ship by Economy Post and will take some time to arrive. Sometimes known as the Amiens Gun, the 28cm SK L/40 Railway Gun “Bruno” was produced by Germany within a series of monstrous artillery weapons. The advent of the railway gun was first seen during the American Civil War with the Confederacy deploying a 32-pound gun at Savage Station in June 1862. As the First World War continued, each army continued to develop larger artillery pieces, eventually mounting naval guns on railway cars. These huge weapons often had a range of twenty miles or more, making them both formidable weapons and top priority targets for opposing armies. This tradition continued into the Second World War. There were six 28cm railway guns produced for the German Army. One of the guns was involved in the Battle of Amiens, used to shell the city of Amiens during the summer of 1918. The gun was captured by the Australians during the Battle of Harbonnieres, a massive offensive by the Allies on August 8, 1918. The gun was brought back to Australia as a war trophy and is on display at the Australian War Memorial in Canberra.

SU-76 Self Propelled Gun
SGD 262.50# BKM262 When Germany invaded the Soviet Union in 1941, much of existing light tank force was overwhelmed in the opening months of conflict and its surviving armor was found to be woefully under-armed against Panzer III and IV adversaries. As expedient measure to mount a more powerful weapon on an easy-to-product light armored hull, the effective Zis 3 76mm anti-tank gun was mated to an enlarged version of the T-70 light tank hull. Cheaper to produce than the similarly armed (but better armored) T-34 medium tank, the Su-76 and it's low profile, was perfectly suited as an anti-tank weapon. The gun's high elevation arc also made the SU-76 well suited for indirect artillery support with an impressive range of 17 kilometers. However, the SU-76's powerful gun, compact size, low ground pressure and small noise signature made it a truly valuable direct infantry support weapon. It was renowned for it's ability to traverse terrain impassable by heavier armored vehicles and was oftem used in supoort of lighting infantry assaults. After early problems were resolved in the automotive system, the SU-76 was loved by its crews for its simple layout and reliable performance, while also being hated for its spartan crew comforts and limited armor protection. The SU-76 was produced from 1942 through the end of World War II and was second only to the venerable T-34 inproduction totals T-34 with more 14,000 Additional information about this Brickmania custom Lego® kit: Brickmania's SU-76 model is based on the improved middle production series SU-76M version with an open fighting compartment at the aft of the vehicles.

P-51D Mustang - 332nd Fighter Group "Red Tail"
SGD 165.00# BKM259 The P-51 "Mustang" was the answer to the Allied need for a long-range high performance fighter plane to escort heavy bombers deep over enemy territory. With a supercharged 12-cylinder Rolls-Royce Merlin engine, high capacity external fuel tanks, and six .50 caliber Browning M2 machine gun, the P51 could hold its own against any fighters the Axis could muster all the way to and from the bombing target. The P-51 could also be configured to carry bombs and 5" rockets against ground targets, and was an effective fighter bomber in its own right. The P-51D was the most widely produced model of World War II and can be distinguished from earlier models by its bubble shaped canopy. The “Tuskegee Airmen” was the popular name of the 332nd fighter group, a group of African-American pilots who served in WWII. They were the first African-American aviators in the United States Armed Forces, a major accomplishment considering that many black Americans were still subject to Jim Crow laws and the American military was a segregated institution. The “Red Tail” moniker came from the fact that pilots in the 332nd would paint the noses, wingtips and rudders of their planes red. All Brickmania model kits are made of new-condition elements from LEGO and BrickArms. This model comes disassembled, includes printed building instructions, and comes packaged in a sealed box. This is a limited edition kit and production may be discontinued at any time. -
