Hi Gents,
A new site from the Philippines has some test shots of the future Trumpeter 1:35 85mm 52-K AA Gun.
http://www.filscalemodels.ph/testshots/soviet85mm52k/soviet85mm52k.html
Although not out yet, I am interested to get one as soon as its released. Are there any good references of this AA gun?
Thanks,

Though I'm not a big fan of Trumpeter (their business ethics leave something to be desired), this is great news!
I've wondered for years why no one had released one. It's a good looking gun and, from a sales standpoint, the Nazis captured and used quite a few of them.

Cool!
Just last week I saw a photo of one of these in German use, but I had no idea what it was until I asked.
Now if only we could get a Flak 38/39 or US M1/M2 90mm...

I was wondering if they were in German use, did they use captured Soviet 85mm rounds or were any of them re-chambered to accommodate the 88mm FLAK round.
Or did they produce 85mm ammo as well.

From Engines of the Red Army website :
"In 1941 the Germans were glad to use many captured examples as the 8.5 cm Flak M.39(r) and like other captured Russian guns, they were rebored to become the 8.5/8.8 cm Flak M.39(r)."
You can also take a look a this thread on the forum of Axis History.com.

The German army in 1941 captured 192 pieces of 76.2 mm and 85 mm Soviet anti-aircraft guns.
76.2 mm guns were used in the ammunition exhausted.
The 85-mm cannon, 1943, Italian industrial companies over 88 mm bore.
The guns were aimed at the German instrument.

A 85 mm KS-12 (K-52) anti-aircraft guns, there were two types of suspension and two barrel version.
The first, early version undercarriages resemble the Bofors 40 mm automatic gun structure, however large the subsequent spring-mounted.
The guns gun shield fitted later.
Ammunition identical to the T-34/85 tank cannon (the tank's cannon from the anti-aircraft guns developed).
