Why this kit matters
During the First World War, Italian forces fighting in difficult mountain and trench conditions developed specialised assault troops and protective equipment for close combat. Some infantry units used steel body armour designed to give limited protection during attacks against fortified positions.
These armoured soldiers were often linked with difficult fighting along the Italian Front, where combat took place in harsh terrain against Austro-Hungarian positions. Their equipment reflected the search for protection in an era shaped by machine guns, artillery and trench warfare. A 1/35 scale plastic model kit of Italian infantry in armour offers a rare and historically distinctive subject for First World War collections.
