W. Britain's #23054 1916-18 German 210mm Howitzer and 5 Man Crew with Accessories
Limited Edition #282 of 400 sets.
The Model 1910 21cm Morser was a heavy howitzer developed by Krupp armaments for the Imperial German Army to replace the obsolete 21cm Morser 99, which lacked a recoil system.
The howitzer weighed in at 15,496 pounds and was usually broken down into 2 loads for transport. Combat experience indicated the need to add a splinter shield to protect the crews making the weapon even heavier.
This model has a crew of 5 Foot Artillerymen, shells, empty cartridge casings, wicker shell cases, equipment boxes and recoil ramps.
