British Type 28a Pillbox FW3-28a - WW2 Bunker - Wargaming 3D Printed Model


The Type 28a pillbox was a small rectangular British fortification that was designed and constructed to house either the 2pdr anti-tank gun or 6pdr Hotchkiss gun for the expected German invasion of England in World War 2.

The official designation of this bunker was FW3/28a and had a rectangular design and was built to shellproof standards. The pillbox measured approx. 6.1m x 5.8m. It had a low and wide embrasure for anti-tank weaponry although the maximum traverse for the guns was limited to 60 degrees.

Generally, the pillboxes are positioned to allow the gun to fire along fixed lines, such as enfilading fire across an anti-tank ditch or a bridge. In these positions the limited traverse of the gun creates no real disadvantage, and the small size of the embrasure provides greater protection for the gun and its crew.
