This is an injection-plastic military vehicle model kit.
The Type 10 tank is the fourth domestically produced main battle tank made in Japan after the war. Procurement and deployment began in 2010, and it is deployed and operated at Ground Self-Defense Force bases throughout Japan. This vehicle, which was developed specifically for conditions in Japan, is equipped with a water-cooled V8 diesel engine that generates 1,200 horsepower and demonstrates a maximum speed of 70km/h. A hydraulic suspension is adopted for the underbody, and attitude control is possible in the same way as the Type 74 tank. The shooting stability and armor have been improved. The main gun is a 44-caliber 120mm smoothbore gun; ammunition is loaded with an automatic loader. The Type 10 also carries a coaxial 7.62mm machine gun and a 12.7mm heavy machine gun on top of the turret. The C41 system is also adopted, characterized by the fact that it is possible to operate in conjunction with the network system of ordinary department units.
This model kit from Waltersons is molded in plastic colored to match the body color used by the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force. Its characteristic style with composite armor is firmly reproduced; the turret can rotate a full 360 degrees after completion, and the gun barrel can be moved up and down. The suspension is also delicately modeled, down to the road wheels and sprocket wheels. The crawler track parts use a belt type made of a flexible plastic material, and a tank commander figure is included too. Order yours today!
