HAT 8359: Russian Foot Artillery

In 1808, foot artillery formed the backbone of the firepower of the Russian Imperial Army.

Unlike horse artillery, these batteries mainly accompanied infantry regiments and occupied fixed positions to support assaults or break enemy attacks.

Thanks to the reforms initiated under the Arakcheev system, the organization, equipment, and effectiveness of the Russian artillery were significantly improved, making these batteries one of the main assets of the army during the Napoleonic Wars.

The HAT 8359 box includes artillery crew in 1808 uniforms, accompanied by their cannons and essential accessories for their deployment.
