Description

This is an injection-plastic military vehicle model kit.

The US M47 Patton was the last tank designed based on WWII-era technical specifications. It carried no sophisticated electronics, such as a fire control unit, which became standard equipment on tank designs which followed. Still, it was a powerful tank with its 90mm gun and was designed to counter the threat from Russian heavy tanks like the JS-3. Basically a stop-gap design between the M46 and M48 Pattons, the M47 had only a brief service life with the US Army, but European NATO countries and other US allies employed the M47 widely from the early 1950s.

This release is a Revell re-boxing of the excellent Italeri kit, and includes a new sheet of decals plus a new set of instructions in the new box. Although originally tooled in the 1970s, this kit is sharply molded, is highly detailed, and is the only 1/35 M47 available! Tracks are of the rubber belt type. The new sheet of decals includes markings for two Federal German Army M47s, an Austrian M47, and a Yugoslavian Balkan War M47.
