NONA-S 2S9 SELF-PROPELLED GUN (Alanger)
This is a 1/35 scale model from Alanger of Russia of the current NONA-S 2S9 airborne self-propelled gun. The weapon has been used against the populations of Afghanistan (1982-1989), and Chechnya (1999-2000), and is probably being used against Ukraine. It is a current Russian Army weapon. The back of the turret opens so that shells can be fed in from a truck parked back to back with the gun carrier. NONA stands for New Ordnance of Ground Artillery (in cyrillic). I bought it for $2 at a silent auction at the 2015 CAPCON model contest in Ottawa.
