Description

This is an injection-plastic figure set for use with military dioramas or individual display.

Fujimi presents the first-ever 1/72-scale model kit of the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force's Type 89 armored combat vehicle! This is a precision model similar to the currently available Type 99 Self-Propelled 155mm Howitzer and Type 87 Self-Propelled Anti-Aircraft Gun.

[Vehicle Body]:

• The front, left and right sides, and bottom are integrated into one piece using a slide mold, reducing the amount of assembly work required. 
• The top is an integrated part with the upper side, minimizing the number of parts while achieving ease of assembly and shape.
• The surface reproduces precise welding marks, panel lines, and anti-slip surfaces with detailed engraving.
• The often-omitted bottom section faithfully reproduces welding marks and three-dimensional shapes.

• The jack and other side equipment are an integrated part of the vehicle.
• The pioneer tools mounted on the left and right rear sides and the track disassembly tool on the right side are also integrated parts of the vehicle.

[Vehicle Details]:

• The driver's hatch and squad leader's hatch are separate parts, and can be displayed either open or closed.
• The six side gun ports are available in two different positions, open or closed, as separate parts.
• The periscope on the top rear of the vehicle is a separate part, and is available in a transparent color.
• The exhaust and engine exhaust ports are separate parts to realistically recreate the grille shape.
• The rearview mirrors (used when driving on public roads) are separate parts. The rearview mirror mounting points are realistically recreated on the vehicle body.
• The headlights, turn signals, and traffic control sidelights are one-piece clear parts.
• The headlight guard mesh can be recreated using the included decals.
• The gun barrel mount is a separate part, available in both fixed and open configurations.
• The rear ventilation system is a separate part with a realistic three-dimensional shape.
• The rear lights are molded in the same gray color as the turret, with recessed carvings on the light surface.
• The front and rear rubber fenders are integrated with the light covers and rear of the vehicle.
• The four towing devices on the front and rear of the vehicle are separate parts to recreate their unique shapes.
• The towing cable on the right side of the vehicle is extremely thin and is made in one piece.
• The pintle hook for towing a one-ton trailer is included. 
• The canister holder is attached only to the top (canister is not included).

[Turret]:

• The top and left and right sides are designed using a slide mold, with integrated parts.
• Th3 35mm cannon barrel is a single component with a flash hider and barrel.
• The canister can be depressed or elevated.
• The turret base replicates the ventilation intake.
• The main gun base (front of the turret) is divided into upper and lower parts.
• The guided missile detector on the right side of the main gun barrel is opened and ready to fire. Open and closed positions are selectable.
• The turret basket is composed of two parts: the bottom and the side wall.
• The commander's hatch and gunner's hatch are separate parts from the turret, and can be displayed in either open or closed positions.
• The commander's and gunner's periscopes are recreated with their armor plates open.
• The anti-glare shutters can be recreated using a combination of dedicated parts and decals.
• The Heavy MAT (Type 79 Anti-Boat Anti-Tank Guided Missile) launcher is designed for ease of assembly. 
• The front door comes with selectable open and closed positions for firing. 
• The launcher elevation angle can be adjusted.
• The 4-barrel smoke launcher is a separate part from the turret.
• The antenna mast has adjustable angles.
• The commander's periscope comes with a transparent molded part.
• The laser detector is a separate part from the turret, with the detector's window recreated with sculpting.
• The anti-aircraft sight and linkage can be equipped with or without the attachment.

[Tracks and Side Skirts]:

• The tracks are constructed with four parts per side for easy assembly and realism.
• The tracks are designed without rubber pads. (The width of the road wheels and tracks has been reduced from the actual scale to allow for the thickness of the skirt.)
• The spare tracks are separate parts.

[Decals]:

• The Type 89 Armored Combat Vehicle's decals include the cherry blossom emblem, vehicle number, unit designation, unit markings, and nameplates (for the hull, turret, maintenance records, and heavy MAT launcher). Two of each type are included.
• Units included: 1.3.5 Company, 11th Infantry Regiment, 1.5 Company, Infantry Training Regiment, and Weapons School
• Separate numerals for vehicle number
• Light guard, periscope anti-dazzle shutter, toolbox/storage box nameplate, rear light
