ACE Models 1/72 Scale 2S23 Nona-SVK Self-Propelled Mortar Model Kit

Build an authentic replica of the Soviet 2S23 Nona-SVK self-propelled mortar system with this detailed 1/72 scale model kit from ACE Models. This versatile wheeled artillery platform represents the evolution of Soviet airborne artillery into a highly mobile system for motorized infantry divisions.

Historical Development

The 2S23 Nona-SVK self-propelled mortar system was developed in the late 1980s as a wheeled variant of the successful tracked 2S9 Nona-S, which had been designed for Soviet air assault divisions. The 2S23 Nona-SVK was specially developed for Soviet motorized infantry units, utilizing an 8x8 wheeled chassis that provided superior road mobility and reduced logistical burden compared to tracked vehicles.

First production vehicles were delivered in 1990, just as the Soviet Union was entering its final years. Despite this timing, the system proved successful enough to be exported to Venezuela and continues to serve in various armed forces today.

Operational Capabilities

The 2S23 Nona-SVK is a highly versatile artillery system that can function as both a mortar and a howitzer, delivering either direct or indirect fire depending on tactical requirements. This dual-role capability makes it exceptionally valuable for supporting mobile infantry operations.
