Description

This is an injection-plastic military vehicle model kit.

During WWII, the Germans captured and used many Allied tanks. These beutepanzer, or "trophy tanks," would often be refitted with typical German equipment and fittings, as seen on this Russian KV-I that had fallen into German hands. This vehicle had been modified to carry the 75mm L/43 gun and was fitted with a commander's cupola, tool boxes, and a jerry can rack. Trumpeter's kit features superb moldings all around, as with all their KV series kits. The tracks are supplied as both nicely molded flexible belt types for ease of assembly and link-and-length injection molded parts, complete with natural sag molded in (these are actually quite easy to assemble, too). Markings included for a German KV-I, with large balkenkreuz for the turret sides to avoid friendly fire. Add this unusual KV-I to your collection today!
