Model Kit

The AFV Club 1/35 US Army Gun Truck “King Cobra” M113/M54 Vietnam War model kit recreates one of the most unique and heavily armed convoy protection vehicles of the Vietnam War. Developed by U.S. Army transportation units to counter increasingly effective ambush tactics against supply convoys, gun trucks combined available vehicle platforms with extensive armor protection and concentrated firepower. The “King Cobra” was built around an M54 5-ton truck chassis and incorporated M113 armored personnel carrier components to create a formidable mobile weapons platform. This detailed kit captures the distinctive armored fighting compartment, machine gun positions, M54 truck chassis, and Vietnam-era equipment details that made these vehicles legendary among convoy units.
