TAKOM 2041  RUSSIAN T-55AM MEDIUM TANK  1/35 SCALE

DESCRIPTION:

Still classed as a medium tank, the T-54 was clearly a superior design to the T-44. Nowadays it is seen as an all-out classic of the Cold War. The T-55 version, which appeared in 1958, was the sum of all the modifications applied to the previous T-54 series, with several differences which made a clear distinction from the previous model. One of these was NBC protection and a brand new engine. T-54s were modernized over time to the T-55 standard, leading to a nearly indistinguishable "T-54/55” generic type.

FEATURES:

The Russian T-55AM tank is finally available in injection plastic for the first time in 1:35 scale!  This highly detailed static model kit contains 567 precision injection styrene parts in grey (184 of which comprise the tracks), 12 clear, 61 photo-etched brass, 1 flexible brown vinyl part for the main gun mantlet dust cover, 2 poly caps, 1 braided steel wire for the tow cables, and water-slide  decals. A choice of markings is available for 4 individual vehicles, including versions serving in the Russian Army, Russian Marines, Cuban Army, and Angolan Armed Forces. Attractive T-54AM painting and markings guide from AMMO of Mig Jimenez includes all 5 views. Special features include a rotating turret, main gun that can be elevated or depressed, and all crew hatches can be open or closed.
