ICM 35714 model 1:35 Zwillingssockel 36 WWII German Anti-aircraft Machine Mount

Zwillingssockel 36 Anti-aircraft Machine Gun Mount is a 1/35 scale plastic model kit from ICM representing a twin machine gun mount used by German armed forces during World War II. The mount was designed to provide mobile low-altitude air defense using paired machine guns mounted on a rotating platform.

The Zwillingssockel 36 system used two machine guns arranged side by side on a pedestal mount, allowing a higher rate of fire and improved tracking of aircraft targets. Such mounts were deployed with field units and defensive positions to protect troop concentrations, transport routes, and logistical areas.

Zwillingssockel 36 - World War II Twin Anti-aircraft Machine Gun Mount

This weapon mount was typically installed on ground positions or adapted for vehicle use where light anti-aircraft protection was required. Its compact construction and twin-gun configuration made it suitable for defending units against low-flying aircraft during wartime operations.

For modelers: When assembling weapon mounts, it can be helpful to align the pedestal and rotating platform components before attaching the guns so the final assembly remains level and symmetrical.
