More info

The kit proposed by Tamiya company includes a plastic model kit of American main battle tank in 1:35 scale.

In the 60s, there was conducted cooperation on a joint project of the US-German main battle tank MBT-70. It was not planned to enter the service before 1970. With the introduction of the Soviet T-62, there was a need to create a vehicle capable to fight the new enemy. The new tank was basically an upgrade to the M60A1 Patton and was named M60A2. Its armament was a modern short barrelled 152 mm cannon, which in addition to conventional ammunition was cable of firing Shillelagh anti-tank missiles. The advantage of this tank was also silhouette, lower than its predecessor, achieved by installing an innovative turret, equipped with the latest fire control systems. Its modern look gave the tank nickname Starship. Unfortunately, M60A2 turned out to be too expensive to operate, due to the regular failures of armaments. With that experience, next development version of Patton was armed with newer conventional cannon.

Tamiya plastic model kit allows assembly of the American M60A2 medium tank with the tank commander and driver. Box includes hull, 6 sprues with parts, 2 metal axles, rubber tracks and decals (3 Armoured Division, The Fort Knox Armoured School).

Plastic parts should be cut out of frames, fit together and glued according to the assembly instruction. You should paint the whole model using modeling paints according to the proposed paint scheme in the instruction. It is important to remember that some plastic parts require painting before gluing.
