Based on the ubiquitous MT-LB series of vehicles, the bigger MT-Lbu is a Soviet multi-purpose fully amphibious light armoured carrier used as the basis for many specialised vehicles. The 1V13 version is part of the 1V12 fire control set which entered service in 1974 and consisted of 8 vehicles in 4 different models. This set is found in self-propelled howitzers (2S1, 2S3, 2S5 and 2S19) equipped artillery units. The 1V13 (former NATO designation ACRV M1974/1) is the battery fire control center. It has a crew of 6 and is equipped with an aiming circle system, range finders, automatic data processing system and several radio sets.
The metal and resin kit is from ? I don't remember. I just know that I bought them with several very nice 2S1 self-propelled artillery and 1 PRP3 forward observation vehicle at Salute 2017 and that I never got to get in touch with their manufacturer afterwards and order more models... (made 2017)
