The M-4 Quad Maxim set played an important role during World War II as a mobile anti-aircraft defense position. M-4 mounts were used on the Eastern Front to defend field units, convoys, and industrial installations against German air attacks. Its high rate of fire and the ability to quickly deploy four machine guns allowed for effective repulsion of low-flying aircraft raids as well as engagement of ground targets. The sets were often mounted on armored vehicles or on special platforms towed by trucks.

The MiniArt 35211 model has been designed with attention to historical detail and faithfulness to the original, making it an excellent choice for experienced military modelers.
