Military
Wars run on wheels as much as tracks. Our military model kits cover the machines behind the front line: field guns and their tractors, trucks and transporters, Land Rovers, half-tracks and armoured cars. The tanks have a page of their own; this is everything that kept them fighting.

Military model kits beyond the tank
The support column is the quiet star of the range: the 25PDR field gun with its Quad tractor, the 88mm with its tractor, wartime G.S. trucks, the M3 half-track, the SDKFz.234 armoured car, a Scammel tank transporter and even an Austin K2/Y ambulance. The tanks themselves sit next door under tank model kits, and the era page for most of it is WW2 model kits.
Airfix military vehicles in 1:76 and 1:35
Two thirds of the range is 1:76, deliberately: these military vehicle models share their scale with the diorama kits and model figures, so a gun, its crew and its tow all sit in proportion. The scale views take the rest: 1:35 scale kits sit alongside 1:76 scale kits.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do the military model kits include artillery?
Yes, and usually with its transport: the 25PDR comes with the Quad, the 88mm and Bofors guns with their tractors, the Pak 40 with its track. Gun-and-tractor pairs are halfway to a diorama straight out of the box, which is much of their appeal.
Which military vehicle models suit a diorama?
Almost all of the 1:76 range, because that's what it was built for: trucks, guns and carriers that match the figures and buildings at the same scale. A refueller beside an aircraft, or a transporter loaded with a tank, tells a story a lone vehicle can't.
Are tanks included in the military vehicle model kits?
No: they have a page of their own, where tank model kits holds the Tiger 1, Sherman Firefly, T34 and the rest of the heavy armour, while the lighter armoured vehicle model kits, the SDKFz.234 and Bren carrier among them, stay here. The two ranges are built to share a scale.
