Tamiya Plastic Model Kit

Tamiya Carro Armato M13/40 (1/35)

This 1/35 scale model kit depicts the Carro Armato M13/40, Italy’s principal tank during World War II. Used extensively from 1940 to 1943, the M13/40 saw service alongside the German Afrika Korps in the harsh conditions of the North African front. With its riveted construction, bogey-style wheel suspension, and hydraulically operated turret, it represented a key stage in Italian armoured vehicle design.

• Highly accurate reproduction of the riveted hull and turret
• Detailed bogey-style wheels on leaf spring suspension
• Metal barrel and photo-etched parts for enhanced realism
• Assembly-type tracks with realistic sag
• Includes standing and seated crew figures
• Marking options for three North African front schemes
• Accessory set including tools, radiator cap, and rank badges

With around 800 units produced, the M13/40 played a significant role in Italy’s WWII operations. This detailed kit offers a rewarding build for modellers interested in North African campaign armour.
