ICM DS7201 Plastic model kit 1:72 Afghan Motorcade (1979-1989) URAL, ATZ, BTR

The Afghan Motorcade set represents a group of Soviet military vehicles used during the Soviet–Afghan War (1979–1989). This plastic model kit in 1/72 scale by ICM includes several vehicles commonly seen in military convoys operating on supply routes in mountainous terrain.

The set features a combination of transport and support vehicles used in convoy operations. Trucks such as the URAL-375 series carried cargo and personnel, while the ATZ-5-375 tanker supported fuel supply logistics. The BTR-60PB armored personnel carrier provided protection and escort capability for motor columns moving through contested areas.

Afghan Motorcade - Soviet Convoy Vehicles of the 1979–1989 Conflict

Convoys composed of cargo trucks, fuel tankers, and armored vehicles were essential for supplying remote garrisons and maintaining communication between military bases. These vehicle groups often operated together on long-distance transport missions across rough terrain and unpaved roads.

For modelers: Multi-vehicle sets provide an opportunity to build a complete convoy scene. Assembling and painting the chassis and wheel assemblies separately before attaching the upper structures can help simplify detailing and weathering of each vehicle.
