Why this kit matters

The Mörser Karl-Gerät 040 was a German self-propelled siege mortar used during World War II. Designed to break through heavily fortified positions, it was one of the largest self-propelled artillery pieces ever built, firing massive 60 cm shells. Only a handful were produced, making it a rare and fascinating subject for military historians and scale modellers alike.

This model kit allows you to recreate a piece of engineering history, capturing the imposing presence and technical complexity of the original vehicle. Building the Karl-Gerät 040 offers insight into the challenges of wartime engineering and the scale of artillery used during major conflicts.
