Don't know anything about the kit other than it is one I have wanted. Others will know lots more and will answer any question you may have. One of these is used in "A Bridge Too Far", first German counterattack at Arnhem bridge.
Great nations do not fall because of external aggression; they first erode and decay inwardly, so that, like rotten fruit, they fall of themselves. The strength of a country is the sum total of the moral strength of the individuals in that country.

Unfortunately, I don't have any knowledge of your kit.
However, I wanted to say welcome to Armorama!
