Who knew the Germans built the equivalent of DUKWs? And used them in various East Front sea operations? You can find out all about them, including getting 1:35 and 1:48 scale B&W drawings, plus lots of black and white photos and a 48-page section of color illustrations. Details: Trojca, Walemar LWS-Land Wasser Schlepper 9x12, 192 pages, approximately 160 photos, 80 pgs of scale drawings, 48 pgs of color, 80 color profiles, 8 maps. 1vol, 192pgs 2009 POLAND, MODEL HOBBY NEW-hardcover

There are a couple of really nice 1:35 kits for this vehicle now – I am hoping somebody does a 1:48 kit (and not a $100 USD resin garage kit) |

The LWS was basically a boat fitted with tracks, while the DUKW was a truck with a boat built around it. Fascinating design though. I thought the Soviets had taken inspiration for a few designs. |
