E.T. Model E35-075 US ARMY M1114 HUMVEE Gunner Protection Kit (For BRONCO Kit) (1/35)

The E.T. Model E35-075 US ARMY M1114 HUMVEE Gunner Protection Kit is a professional set of photo-etched parts made from high-quality brass. This product is specifically designed for the Bronco Models 1/35 scale M1114 Humvee. The kit enhances both details and realism of the built vehicle, further expanding the possibilities for modeling enthusiasts to accurately replicate modern armored vehicles used by the United States Army.

The M1114 Humvee is a modernized and armored version of the popular HMMWV (High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle), widely used by US forces since the late 1990s, particularly during the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. The Gunner Protection Kit was developed in response to rising threats from small arms and shrapnel during asymmetric and patrol operations in the Second Gulf War and ISAF missions in Afghanistan. Reinforcing the turret and vehicle sides was intended to increase safety for the machine gun operator and crew during convoys and combat interventions in demanding urban and desert environments.
