This multi-part metal kit contains:

HQ Team

CCP Army officers were chosen for their military experience and political ideology. CCP officers did not carry swords like Japanese officers. They held titles, not ranks; for example, Platoon Commander or Company Commander instead of Lieutenant or Captain. There are also models to represent medics and/or observers.

Medium Machine Gun Team

The Type 24 machine gun was a Chinese-made copy of the MG08/15 Maxim machine gun. The Chinese utilized captured US .30cal MMGs and made copies of the .30cal.

Medium Mortar Team

The Chinese had a whole host of medium mortars at the infantry battalion level, typically deploying the Russian Model 82mm and the Brandt Mle 27/31 (81mm) medium mortar. The Chinese PVA formed small batteries of three tubes in an infantry battalion weapons group and batteries of six tubes in a battalion mortar group.

Includes 10 metal models and 2 artillery pieces
