This is an injection-plastic military vehicle model kit.
Here's a completely new mold 1/48 Hucks Starter engine car from GMU Model in Ukraine.
The Hucks Starter is an aircraft engine starting vehicle developed by Captain Hucks of the British Army Air Corps at the end of the First World War. At the time, aircraft engines were manually started by mechanics, but this was a very dangerous and time-consuming process. This truck-based Hucks starter was quickly approved by the British military and was introduced after the war.
By connecting a shaft connected to the truck's engine to a starting hook on the end of the propeller, the truck's engine power was used to start the aircraft's engine. It was used by many countries and armies until the 1930s, when new engine starting methods such as the Coffman engine starter were introduced.
