The car "AMO F-15" was the result of further development of the Italian truck "FIAT - 15ter". These cars were produced between 1924 and 1931. The first 10 cars were assembled on November 1-6, 1924 and were shown during the November 7 demonstration on Red Square in Moscow. All trucks are painted red. The quality of the manufactured cars was checked during the test raid route Moscow - Leningrad - Smolensk - Moscow. All AMO F-15s covered a route of almost 2000 km without the slightest breakdown or breakage. The 1925 raid brought new achievements for the AMO F-15. 45 trucks and 79 cars from America, Germany, France, Czechoslovakia, Italy, Austria and Britain participated in this competition. FIAT registered its latest truck model in this race. The length of the route for the trucks was 4724 km and the foreign representatives were almost sure, that the two participating AMOs would hardly reach the finish line. The first production batches of F-15 almost completely copied the FIAT design of 1916 - even the steering wheel was mounted on the right (FIAT abandoned this decision in 1920). The car had many shortcomings and outdated technical solutions - a folding fabric roof, a gravity-fed method of supplying fuel to the engine and a very primitive carburetor. The engine is started manually by turning the handle, acetylene lights are used for lighting, and a handset with a rubber bulb is used for signaling. But two years later, the second batch was significantly improved and modernized. Production volumes increased. The AMO F-15 chassis was used in the design and production of fire engines, buses, vans, staff cars, the BA-27 armored car and a money transport van.

A simple, medium-sized, well-detailed and well-designed model with simplified engine, chassis detailing, with an average detailing of cabin, excellent exterior detailing. The model is intended for modelers of any experience, under the supervision of a more experienced colleague, this model can also be glued by a beginner and a modeler with little experience. The model reproduces the car, that took part in the parade on November 7, 1924 in Moscow's Red Square.
