DESCRIPTION

The MP-40 was a German submachine gun developed in the late 1930s and widely used throughout the Second World War. Designed as an evolution of the earlier MP-38, it was optimized for mass production through the use of stamped steel and simplified components, making it both cost-effective and reliable in combat conditions. Chambered in 9×19 mm Parabellum, the MP-40 featured a relatively moderate rate of fire of around 500–550 rounds per minute, allowing for controllable automatic fire and improved accuracy at short to medium ranges.

Equipped with a 32-round detachable box magazine and a distinctive folding metal stock, the MP-40 was compact and well-suited for mechanized infantry, paratroopers, and armored vehicle crews. Its blowback-operated system contributed to its mechanical simplicity, though it could be sensitive to dirt and magazine-related feeding issues. Despite these limitations, the MP-40 became one of the most recognizable firearms of the war, valued for its balance of portability, firepower, and ease of production.

This model is a realistic and accurate representation of the MP-40 design, based in original German technical drawings, museum photographs and 3D references. It is suitable for rendering, simulations, and videogames.

Geometry
No N-gons
N-gons are polygons with five or more sides which might cause issues in certain processes like rendering or animation. Learn more
No faceted geometry
Faceted geometry uses flat surfaces without smoothing, which can look unrealistic on curves.
Learn more
Manifold geometry
Manifold geometry ensures all surfaces are properly connected, avoiding issues like edges shared by more than two faces.

Textures & material
PBR textures
PBR textures simulate how light interacts with materials, making the model look realistic under different lighting.
Required PBR textures:
- Base Color
- Roughness
- Metalness
- Normal

No embed textures
Embedded textures are stored inside the model file, increasing its size and sometimes causing compatibility issues.
Learn more
Square textures
Texture aspect ratio is the width-to-height ratio of a texture. Expected texture aspect ratio: 1:1
Learn more
Power of 2 texture sizes
Textures with dimensions in power of two (e.g. 512x512px, 1024x1024px) are used to optimize performance and memory usage.

Assigned materials
Materials are applied to the 3D model to allow visualize a model's surface properties and appearance.

UVs & naming
No UV overlaps
UVs overlap when multiple points on the 3D model's surface are mapped to the same point on the UV island causing texture stretching.

UV unwrapped model
A UV unwrapped model means its 3D surface is flattened into 2D space, allowing textures to be applied accurately.
