Overview of the Trumpeter 07274 Sturmtiger Kit

The Trumpeter 07274 Sturmtiger kit represents a distinctive WWII assault mortar mounted on the Tiger I chassis, armed with the 38cm Raketenwerfer 61 L/5.4. Production was extremely limited, which makes the subject compelling for modellers interested in uncommon wartime vehicles.

Service Role and Modelling Interest

Used by specialised mortar companies on the Western Front, the Sturmtiger was designed for heavy short-range fire. The model appeals to builders who enjoy accurate armour subjects and the challenge of assembling unique weapon systems.

Scale Details and Assembly Overview

This 1:72 scale kit contains 125 plastic parts on nine sprues, yielding a finished model 87.1mm long, 51.2mm wide and 48mm high. The compact build benefits from careful part preparation and precise gluing to retain fine detail.

The kit suits modellers with some experience in 1:72 armour kits; small parts and tight fits benefit from prior kit-building practice and a steady hand.
The kit is complete for a standard build, though modellers may choose aftermarket photo-etch or resin upgrades for extra fine detail if desired.
Use subtle washes, light drybrushing and pigments to simulate grime and wear; the compact scale responds well to restrained weathering techniques.
