TRUMPETER 7137 RUSSIAN BTR-70 ARMORED PERSONNEL CARRIER (EARLY VERS.) 1/72 SCALE
DESCRIPTION:
The BTR-70 is an eight-wheeled armored personnel carrier, originally developed during the late 1960s under the industrial identifier GAZ-4905. On August 21, 1972, it was accepted into service and would later be exported to the Warsaw Pact and other allies. Introduced as a successor to the earlier BTR-60, it most closely resembles a BTR-60PB. Other improvements include heavier armor plating and tires less prone to puncture. In other respects, the vehicle is very similar to the BTR-60PB, with a more powerful petrol engine configuration and armament of a primary heavy machine gun and secondary PKT machine gun on a roof mounted turret.
