Historical Background

The 15 cm sFH 18 (schwere Feldhaubitze 18) was one of the most important heavy howitzers used by German forces throughout WWII. Developed in the late 1920s and 1930s by leading firms such as Rheinmetall and Krupp, it reflected Germany’s push to modernize artillery within the limitations imposed after World War I.

Reliable and effective, the sFH 18 featured:

• Maximum range of approximately 13.5 km
• Ability to be transported in two sections
• Towing by horse teams or half-tracks
• Operation by a 7-man crew

The kit also includes the option to build the 10.5 cm sK 18 field gun, a longer-barreled artillery piece mounted on a similar carriage, offering increased range but produced in more limited numbers.
