Description

This is an injection-plastic military vehicle model kit.

From the manufacturer description: 

The BTR-80 8 x 8 armored personnel carrier is intended to carry personnel on the battlefield and provide close fire support. It can also carry out reconnaissance, combat support and patrol missions. It entered service with the Russian army in the late 1980's and has since been used in a number of military conflicts, including UN peacekeeping operations. The vehicle is in production and in service with the Russian army and with a number of other countries.

The BTR-80 is superior to BTR-60/70 with a larger chassis, high-angle-of-fire-turret, and single more powerful diesel engine (vs gasoline). Although the armament is the same as BTR-60 and BTR-70, except for added smoke grenade dispensers on the back of the turret, the conical turret has been improved and the gun can elevate higher. The front and side firing ports have been greatly improved (square/inset, angled slightly forward). The BTR-80 also fixed the side entrance problems found in BTR-60/70. Now the entrance consists of a two part door (upper and lower parts which open outwards). It's now big enough to load/unload cargo.

Parts come molded in gray. Includes tires, photo-etched parts and decals.
