Centurion Mk.III w/Option 1/16 KIT

Product detailed description

Plastic Kit model of a remote control tank (RC model) in scale 1/16.

The Centurion is a British tank whose development began during the Second World War as an effective weapon against powerful German tanks. Although he was not deployed in time in the 2nd world war, he quickly gained ground in the Korean War, which broke out in June 1950 - more precisely, his Mk.III model, a variant that was significantly improved over the previous models, saw action. The Centurion Mk.III was a key presence to the extent that it was often cited as the most effective tank within the UN forces. Several other variants were developed in later years as the Centurion served various European armies and even equivalents in India and Israel.

The kit contains plastic and metal unassembled parts and pre-assembled mechanical parts. Quality metal gearboxes with 380 motors, slide mechanism, barrel aiming mechanism, turret rotation mechanism. The metal cannon and machine gun is equipped with a flash unit. The entire lower part of the model is also metal, including all the main parts of the vehicle (undercarriage parts, suspension arms, drive and idler wheels,...). Just like the real tank, the model uses the Horstmann system wheel suspension, which facilitates the movement of the tank on uneven terrain.
The kit includes a 4-channel multifunctional unit ensuring realistic movement, lighting and sound of the model.

The Tamiya Battle System 300053447 (6453447) module can be purchased as a separate accessory, which can be used to simulate a battle with several models.
