Tamiya R35 French Light Tank 1/35 Model Tank Kit
The Tamiya R35 French Light Tank 1/35 Model Tank Kit recreates the R35. It was originally designed as a successor to the late-WWI Renault FT, and inherited its 37mm gun, paired with a cast turret and three-piece bolted cast hull. Around 1,500 were manufactured after its official adoption in 1935; they were one of the main pillars of the French attempt to resist the German onslaught during the Fall of France in May/June 1940.
Features:
- 1/35 scale plastic model kit
- The 37mm gun offers elevation and (as on the actual R35) 5 degrees of traverse to either side
- Assembly type tracks allow fuss-free depiction of upper run ‘sag.’ They feature one-piece straight sections
- Comes with two marking options, and a figure perched on the hatch in the turret rear
- Color painting guide included which aids with recreation of the intricate French camouflage pattern
- Length: 114mm, width: 55mm
Note: Photo of completed model is for illustrative purposes only. This is a model kit that requires assembly. Hobby tools, adhesive and paint will be needed to complete the model.
