Academy 13403 - 1/72 U.S. Ambulance & Tow Truck WWII Ground Vehicle Set - field service pair

The Academy 13403 set reproduces two American service vehicles from WWII: the military ambulance and the recovery tow truck. At 1/72 scale this kit appeals to hobbyists seeking compact, historically inspired models for patio or shelf displays.

Operational Context and Visual Interest

Ambulances and tow trucks played key roles in battlefield support, moving casualties and disabled vehicles. This pair brings that back-office action to your display, with forms that read well even at small scale and complement larger vehicle groupings.

Crafting Tips and Finishing

Precision-moulded parts reward careful work; model builders should trim sprue gates, test-fit pieces and use fine adhesives to retain detail. A measured paint scheme and subtle weathering will lift the realism of both models.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: Injection plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required for assembly
  • Paint: Recommended to complete the models
Build time varies by skill, but an experienced modeller can assemble and paint each vehicle over a few evenings, allowing drying time between steps.
This set does not include crew figures, but 1/72 figures from other kits will match scale for diorama work.
Olive drab tones and muted sand shades are typical; consult period references or paint manufacturer guides for accurate mixes.
