The kit proposed by Tamiya company includes a plastic model kit of American military car in 1:35 scale.

The Tamiya kit allows you to build the M151A2 Ford Mutt off-road M161A2 off-road vehicle with the driver. The PPK TOW system has been developing since the 1960s and is today the primary mobile anti-armor weapon of the US Army. With an effective range of 3750 m, the missile is capable of penetrating a 600 mm thick armor. 

The box contains 3 frames with model elements, a transparent plastic frame with glass and decals (allow the reconstruction of an Army vehicle or the United States Marine Corps).
