Description

The Tamiya Russian T-55 Medium Tank 1/48 Model Tank Kit is a smaller scaled version of the fan favorite 1/35 scale T-55. The T-55 medium tank not only provided a base for later T-62, T-72 and T-80 designs still in use today, it spurred Western rivals on and contributed to the great East-West arms race of the Cold War. Its 100mm gun compared favorably with the West 90mm counterpart, and with HEAT rounds could defeat up to 390mm of armor. The T-55 was produced in the USSR, and under license in Czechoslovakia and Poland, and supplied to Soviet countries and clients worldwide it even faced off against U.S.-designed M48s and M60A1s in the Middle East.
