Academy 13402 - 1/72 U.S. 2 TON 6X6 Cargo Truck and WWII Accessories

The Academy 13402 kit provides a faithful small-scale representation of the U.S. 2 TON 6X6 Cargo Truck. Precision moulding captures structural elements and load areas, and the supplied accessories help create convincing period scenes on a compact footprint.

Operational Role and Scale Detail

During the war these trucks were essential for moving supplies and personnel over unpaved routes. The model focuses on authentic proportions and stowage points so builders can recreate cargo arrangements and field equipment. Attention to painting and subtle weathering will enhance the truck's utilitarian appearance.

Assembly Tips and Display Ideas

This 1/72 kit is ideal for builders looking for a satisfying project without a large display requirement. The build involves small pieces so patience and basic tools are recommended. Once complete, the truck pairs well with other 1/72 items to form compact but informative dioramas.

Yes, the dimensions are produced for 1/72 scale, matching common figures and vehicles so you can mix manufacturers within the same scene.
Many builders add resin or photoetched upgrades for extra detail, but the standard kit is complete enough for a high quality finish with careful painting.
A small roadside or supply depot base works well to convey scale and context. Keep base sizes modest to complement the 1/72 footprint.
