Better off-road capability is the reason why African countries like Morocco and the Middle East chose this vehicle. This vehicle was frequently used in combat and for peacekeeping and restoration, particularly within the UN and NATO framework. In Bosnia, where 200 to 400 VABs were permanently present, the availability rate exceeded 90%, while maintenance was limited to routine interventions.

For a long time, it formed a cornerstone of the Bundeswehr‘s air defence. The Gepard was developed to provide the mobile tank and armoured infantry troops of the Bundeswehr with protection against low-flying aircraft and combat helicopters in the tactical context of the battle of the linked weapons. The choice of armament also took into account the combat of heavily armoured attack helicopters such as the Mil Mi-24 „Hind“, whose armour effectively provided protection against projectiles up to 23mm calibre. When engaging ground targets such as tanks or wheeled vehicles, detection and tracking was done visually via one of the commander‘s or gunner‘s periscopes. On the other hand, due to the relatively large calibre of its guns, above those of most infantry fighting vehicles, it could easily destroy lightly armoured vehicles such as infantry fighting vehicles, armoured transport vehicles or other anti-aircraft vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1:35\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParts: 320\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 220 x 96mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Heller","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52029517889749,"sku":"HEL81127","price":51.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/1972\/4454\/files\/heller-81127-1-35-gepard-model-tank-kit.webp?v=1758386825"},{"product_id":"heller-81126-1-35-leopard-1a4-model-tank-kit","title":"Heller 81126 1\/35 Leopard 1A4 Model Tank Kit","description":"\u003ch1\u003eHeller 81126 1\/35 Leopard 1A4 Tank\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eModel Kit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Leopard 1 is a German main battle tank.

Away from its home port and sometimes in hostile zones, it is then necessary to supply the group with fuel, ammunition, spare parts and fresh food. This is the role of the tanker refuellers, the first modern vessels equipped for this purpose being the Seine and the Saône. A delicate exercise, refuelling at sea, or RAM, sees several ships sailing together, the tanker often being flanked by the aircraft carrier on one side and a wing escort on the other. The fuel is transferred by means of flexible sleeves, with the goods passing through pallets suspended by a network of cables.

In this context, the French government decided to launch the construction of the Porte- Hélicoptères-75, a 16,400-ton helicopter carrier equipped with nuclear boilers, a project that was eventually abandoned. In 1982, the French Navy High Council requested that the studies carried out for the nuclear propulsion of the PH-75 project (which in the meantime had become Aircraft Carrier-75 and then PA-83) be used to define a new generation of aircraft carriers capable of replacing the Clemenceau and Foch before the end of the century. Nuclear propulsion gives the vessel the possibility of remaining at sea longer without the need to refuel. More than 10,000 plans were drawn up by the engineers of the Direction des Constructions Navales (DCN), and on 4 February 1986, the construction of the ship christened Charles de Gaulle was authorised. It was launched on 7 May 1994 and commissioned on 18 May 2001. A true technical feat, this aircraft carrier has a system of 12 mobile masses of 22 t which compensates for rolling movements and enables the ship to use its aircraft on board by sea at force 5 or 6. The Charles de Gaulle‘s shapes are „stealthy“ to reduce its radar signature to make it less easily identifiable. In 2020, France is the only country, apart from the United States, to have completed the construction of a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1:400\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParts: 140\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 654 x 161mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Heller","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52029518643413,"sku":"HEL81072","price":109.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/1972\/4454\/files\/heller-81072-1-400-charles-de-gaulle-french-aircraft-carrier-2001-model-ship-kit.webp?v=1758390944"},{"product_id":"heller-81071-1-400-foch-french-aircraft-carrier-1965-model-ship-kit","title":"Heller 81071 1\/400 Foch French Aircraft Carrier 1965 Model Ship Kit","description":"\u003ch1\u003eHeller 81071 1\/400 Foch French Aircraft Carrier 1965\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eModel Kit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe aircraft carrier Foch (visual call sign R 99) was the sister-ship of the Clemenceau.

The Foch, put into the hold in February 1957, was built at the Atlantic shipyards in Saint Nazaire and commissioned on 15 July 1963. The landings were made on the 165 m sloping runway equipped with 4 stopping strands. The 2 steam catapults of 50 m allowed the take-off of 15\/20 ton aircraft at 110 knots. The 2 lifts could lift a 15-tonne aircraft to 8.50 m in 9 seconds. Between 1980 and 1981, it underwent an IPER (Periodic Unavailability for Maintenance and Repair) which equipped it with a naval operating system for tactical information, an inertial power plant for adjusting the aircraft platform before catapulting, missile bunkers for AM-39 Exocet missiles and tactical nuclear weapons. It will thus be able to accommodate 4 or 5 AN-52s and then the ASMP6 missile.

In 1777 Great Britain was at war again and on 8th May 1778 the completed vessel was launched as Admiral Vessel under the command of Admiral Lord Keppel to fight her first battle against the French fleet near the Brittany coast. April 1803 she was armed again, with her appearance very different. Most of the golden ornamentation had been changed, or had been deleted. When she then went back to sea she had the looks that are much admired today. In 1825, the vessel became Portsmouth Chief Admiral Headquarters and kept this honor until 1869. The honor was restored to her 32 years later in 1901. In 1921, the Nautical Research Society, whose president was Lord Milford Haven, organized a campaign to save the Victory and on 12th January she was moved into the oldest dry dock in the world: Portsmouth Dock N°2.

Classified among the 74-gun ships, it was the peculiarity of having a copper-plated hull. This practice of doubling had become widespread from 1770. It allowed the hull and in particular the hull shell, not to be attacked by worms and other parasites. An additional advantage was that the ship gained a few knots in speed. The Superbe was equipped with 74 guns, distributed as follows: 28 pcs of 36 pounds on the 1st battery, 30 pcs of 18 pounds on the 2nd battery and 16 pcs of 8 pounds on the fore ship. Like all ships with 74 guns, the Superbe had no mantelet on the second battery. It should be noted that the figurehead of this ship is a coat of arms that was introduced as a regulation in 1785. The Superbe was introduced into the naval army of Admiral Villaret De Joyeuse and sank in January 1795 during a violent storm. The storm damaged many ships of this army, including the Superbe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1:150\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParts: 867\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 560 x 450mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Heller","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52029525819605,"sku":"HEL80895","price":134.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/1972\/4454\/files\/heller-80895-1-150-lesuperbe-3-masted-sailing-ship-model-kit.jpg?v=1758392084"},{"product_id":"heller-80892-1-200-le-royal-louis-sailing-ship-model-kit","title":"Heller 80892 1\/200 Le Royal Louis Sailing Ship Model Kit","description":"\u003ch1\u003eHeller 80892 1\/200 Le Royal Louis Sailing Ship\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eModel Kit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is thanks to the helpfulness of the SERVICE HISTORIQUE DE LA MARINE in PARIS, who opened their archives to the technicians of the HELLER company, that the reconstruction of the ROYAL LOUIS was possible.

OLIVIER, famous for his naval architecture. The Royal Louis was a first class tall ship. She was equipped with 120 cannons, 32 pcs. of them of calibre 36, each weighing almost 5 tons. She was one of the largest warships of her time. She was named after the French king Louis XVI. Her length at the waterline was 68 m, the total length 96 m and the height of the main mast from keel to platform was 74 m. In the years 1779-1780 the Royal Louis was a main ship of the Blue and White Squadron, which belonged to the Squadron of America called, Count von Estaing. This ship was exceptional for its forms and above all for the richness, finesse and elegance of its stern, whose balconies were true masterpieces.

From 193 to 1955 the training ship crossed the Atlantic to the United States, Central America, Brazil and Argentina end completed many cruises on the North Sea and to the Eastern Coasts of the Atlantic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1:150\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParts: 409\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 700 x 210mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Heller","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52029535256789,"sku":"HEL80807","price":149.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/1972\/4454\/files\/heller-80807-1-150-amerigo-vespucci-sailing-ship-model-kit.jpg?v=1758394662"},{"product_id":"heller-80799-1-8-citroen-15cv-4-door-sedan-car-model-kit","title":"Heller 80799 1\/8 Citroen 15CV 4-Door Sedan Car Model Kit","description":"\u003ch1\u003eHeller 80799 1\/8 Citroen 15CV 4-Door Sedan Car\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eModel Kit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe TRACTION was presented at the 1934 Motor Show. At that time, there were three versions: the 7, the 11 and the 22. The 7 cv was almost a test car. The 11cv was proposed in 2 versions: the light 11 légère and the normal 11. The 22 CV had a short life, as the only show where it appeared was in 1934. It was André Lefébvre who took over the construction of the revolutionary car which was the TRACTION. From then on, the firm of CITROEN launched into the construction of a more powerful car and, in 1938, the six-cylinder CITROEN 15 SIX made its appearance. The 15 SIX was a normal 11 CV with an extended bonnet, and it attained timed speeds of up to 130 kmh, with remarkable road handling, which is why it came to be nicknamed La Reine de la Route (Queen of the Road). In 1953, CITROEN proposed three new colors: pearl grey, smoky grey and midnight blue, but black always remained the favorite. Between 1946 and 1955, the 15 was the official car of the French Government. In 1955, the Presidency of the Republic purchased three 15 SIX H platforms. One of them, with limousine coachwork by Fresnay, was for a long time the official car of President René Coty and of General de Gaulle. Production of the CITROEN 15 stopped in the middle of 1955, after seventeen years of success.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1:8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParts: 1054\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 595 x 220mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Heller","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52029535355093,"sku":"HEL80799","price":479.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/1972\/4454\/files\/heller-80799-1-8-citroen-15cv-4-door-sedan-car-model-kit.webp?v=1758395432"},{"product_id":"heller-80795-1-16-citroen-ds19-4-door-car-model-kit","title":"Heller 80795 1\/16 Citroen DS19 4-Door Car Model Kit","description":"\u003ch1\u003eHeller 80795 1\/16 Citroen DS19 4-Door Car\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eModel Kit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManagement at CITROËN believed that the standard of living of the French and of Europeans was on the rise. The 2 CV had just been successfully launched on the market and a successor had to be found for the 15 and 11 CV. The VGD project (Large Series Car), the first designs of which dated back to 1945, began to take shape. André LEFEBVRE who is appointed manager of the project decides the car should be innovative throughout. The body was the art of Flaminio Bertoni and the suspension that of Paul Magès. As for the engine, Paul Bercot updated the design of the old 1911 cc D engine. At the end of 1954, the project is completed. In October 1955, the car made its debut at the 42nd Paris Motor Show. Most surprising about the car were its lines. The design was totally new. France was divided into two groups: those who liked it and those who didn‘t. But the bodywork was not the only novel feature. Hydropneumatic suspension brought unrivaled comfort with four wheel independent suspension. Plastic became an important element in the bodywork, the roof panel and rear window as well as the light alloys for the bonnet making use of plastics. There were also other new features: a single spoke steering wheel, tapered turn signals and doors without window frames.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1:16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParts: 157\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 298 x 111mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Heller","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52029535453397,"sku":"HEL80795","price":89.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/1972\/4454\/files\/heller-80795-1-16-citroen-ds19-4-door-car-model-kit.webp?v=1758395781"},{"product_id":"heller-80789-1-24-1930s-parisien-tn6-c2-autobus-model-kit","title":"Heller 80789 1\/24 1930s Parisien TN6 C2 Autobus Model Kit","description":"\u003ch1\u003eHeller 80789 1\/24 1930s Parisien TN6 C2 Autobus\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eModel Kit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt was in the early thirties, after the Paris and suburban trams had been removed from service, that the first buses of the TN series were built. The progress that had been made by the automobile industry, especially in the field of tires, made it possible to design buses which could seat fifty people or more. The buses of the TN series were equipped with 4-cylinder engines of 58 HP (TN.4) and 6-cylinder engines of 94 HP (TN.6 family). The TN.4A was used on short and medium runs in flat areas, whilst the more powerful TN.6 was used on the long suburban runs and on the very hilly lines such as Montmartre, Ménilmontant and Belleville. The TN.6A and the TN.6C were identical in appearance, the only discernable difference being in the wheels, which had rims with solid centres on the TN.6A, whilst the TN.6C had removable rims, called artillery rims. The enormous flexibility of use of the TN.6C was legendary among drivers. During the war, these buses were equipped with a coal-burning gas generating system, either Imber or Gohin--Panhard. After the war, the main modification made on the TN.6s was the enclosing of the driver‘s cab, so as to allow him a minimum of comfort during the winter months. Replacement of the TN buses was begun in 1960, and the last one was withdrawn in 1969, thirty eight years after the first one was put into service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1:24\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParts: 198\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 394 x 102\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Heller","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52029535584469,"sku":"HEL80789","price":105.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/1972\/4454\/files\/heller-80789-1-24-1930s-parisien-tn6-c2-autobus-model-kit.webp?v=1758396030"},{"product_id":"heller-80782-1-24-bmw-328-endurance-race-car-model-kit","title":"Heller 80782 1\/24 BMW 328 Endurance Race Car Model Kit","description":"\u003ch1\u003eHeller 80782 1\/24 BMW 328 Endurance Race Car\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eModel Kit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe commercial ideal of BMW at its outset was the manufacture and sale of popular vehicles. However, the arrival of the six-cylinder engine together with the requirements of the Chancellery (1936) led BMW to reconsider its commercial policy and to orient its production. This led to the birth of the BMW 328, of which the prototype was presented in June 1936. That same year, the 328 was placed first in its category at the A.D.A.C.-EIFELRENNEN on the NURBURGRING track. This was only the first of a series of over two hundred victories, including that at the 1939 24 Hours at Le Mans. The BMW 328 was built until the outset of the Second World War, in 1940, by which time 462 cars had been produced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1:24\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParts: 94\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 157 x 63mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Heller","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52029535682773,"sku":"HEL80782","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/1972\/4454\/files\/heller-80782-1-24-bmw-328-endurance-race-car-model-kit.webp?v=1758396108"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0520\/1972\/4454\/collections\/Heller_logo.jpg?v=1757636722","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterosehobbies.com\/collections\/heller-models.oembed?page=8","provider":"White Rose Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
