Aber 72L-47 90mm Barrel for the Italian 90/53 Gun with Shield is an extremely precisely made replacement set in 1/72 scale, dedicated to modelers seeking the highest quality detail for their historical models. The product is intended for faithfully recreating the Italian Cannone da 90/53 anti-aircraft gun, which was used by Italy during World War II.

Historical Background

The 90/53 gun, equipped with a 90mm caliber barrel, formed the backbone of the Italian anti-aircraft defense between 1940-1945. This model was widely used both by the regular Italian army and, after Italy's capitulation in 1943, by German forces. These guns protected key industrial installations and cities from air raids and were also employed as anti-tank guns on the North African and Italian fronts. Their construction allowed targeting airborne threats up to a range of 10 km and ground targets at distances of 4-5 km.
