Flames of War British Airborne 75mm Light Troop

Airborne divisions required artillery that could be flown in by glider and quickly brought into action to support paratroopers behind enemy lines. The U.S.-designed 75mm pack howitzer, adopted by British airborne forces, was the perfect solution. Light, versatile, and easy to assemble, it provided the fire support paratroopers needed to hold objectives and repel counterattacks until heavier reinforcements could arrive.

Product Info:
This set includes four plastic 75mm pack howitzers with British airborne crew, plastic bases, and unit cards for use in Flames of War.

About the Unit:
The 75mm pack howitzer could be broken down into pieces for glider transport and quickly reassembled once landed. With high mobility and solid firepower, these guns delivered bombardments to suppress enemy infantry, neutralize machine guns, and disrupt advancing German forces. Used in operations such as Normandy and Arnhem, they became an indispensable element of British airborne artillery.
