This is a 28mm model of the Soviet GAZ AA truck, which was the standard transport and jack-of-all-trades ("Ivan-of-all-trades"?) for the Red Army in WW2. It was a licenced copy of the Ford AA truck, as noted in its history:

I wasn't able to find much in the way of Soviet wheeled transport in this site, so started hacking away at this. I did the actual test print pictured here in "low quality- 0.15mm" setting as I did not have much faith in the file, but it turned out okay but still urge you to print in ":fine-0.1mm" for a good result.
The model has a separate chassis and cargo box as well as separate axles and wheels of course. The Axles are specific to front and rear and have "UP" printed on them - this means that side goes UP into the small recess. THe one marked "R-UP" means it is the REAR axle. Please test fit before gluing.
As I was sure some would want to have the quad Maxim MGs mount, I created the mount and MMGS as well as a separate cargo box with a protrusion to hold the mount (which has a recess in the bottom).
The Quad maxims is also a three piece print.
Please don't fear it is out of scale. the Joseph Stalin figure inspecting it is the oversized Black Tree figure who stands about 35mm high. It is identical in size the the Warlord Games Gaz AA.
