IBG is now selling two 1:35 scale versions of the Czech 100mm howitzer - in its WWI configuration, and as improved from 1919 onwards. Used by a number of countries, these even served with the Germans in WW2.
Designed in 1914, the Skoda 100mm vz 14 Howitzer served the Austro-Hungarian empire until its break-up at the end of WWI. Many were acquired by Italy after the war, and from 1919 onwards an improved version with rubber tyres was sold to a number of nations. Germany acquired them from Czechoslovakia and Poland, calling them 10cm LeFH 14/19 (t). IBG offers both of them in 1:35 scale:


35026 - Skoda 100mm vz 14 Howitzer
35027 - 10cm LeFH 14/19 (t)

Perfect for artillery dioramas spanning both World Wars!

Cool I love ambidextrous model kits! Does anyone know if the Polish still had these during the German invasion?

It would seem according to this that Poland would have had some of the later versions: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10_cm_M._14_Feldhaubitze see here also; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skoda_houfnice_vz_14 Al

This period picture is dated 1939 : The Polish Army had about 900 vz14/19 howitzers in September 1939... H.P.

Some of these weapons, which I think might be the 100mm (not 100% sure) have been found in Iraq.

Correction...maybe its the 18 pouner thats was found in Iraq...lol...I'm so confused!
JUL 23, 2014 - 07:18 AM
I built the kit recently, it has no gun sight and no handle to change the trail spade from towing into firing position...
