The 1:35 Trumpeter 00398 M1131 Stryker FSV is a detailed plastic model kit of an American Fire Support Vehicle within the modern Stryker family. This Static Armor model is ideal for modellers who want to build a US Army artillery reconnaissance vehicle with a clear role in surveillance, target acquisition, target identification and fire support coordination. The M1131 Stryker FSV gives your 1:35 collection a modern tactical presence with strong operational meaning.

The Stryker was developed around the US Army’s need for speed, mobility and rapid strategic deployment. The concept was based on the ability to deploy a light infantry brigade, later known as the Stryker Brigade Combat Team, anywhere in the world within 96 hours. The first prototypes appeared around 2000, serial production began in 2002 and by early 2018 an estimated 4,900 Stryker vehicles had been built. The Stryker is powered by a 350 hp Caterpillar C7 engine and combines high mobility with upgrade potential and relatively light armour up to 15 mm.

The M1131 Fire Support Vehicle supports the Brigade Combat Team with enhanced surveillance, target acquisition, target identification, target designation and communications for first round fire-for-effect capability. It integrates the M707 Striker Mission Equipment Package and supports the Fire Support Team, consisting of the fire support officer, fire support NCO and one fire support specialist. The FIST uses the FSV and Striker capability for combat laser designation, enabling precision artillery or aerial-delivered munitions.
