Tamiya Crusader Mk III Anti-Aircraft (1/48)
This 1/48 scale Tamiya model kit recreates the British Crusader Mk.III Anti-Aircraft tank, a unique adaptation of the Crusader cruiser tank that served in Europe from the Normandy landings onwards. Developed after the Crusader was retired from its main battle tank role, this version mounted twin 20mm Oerlikon cannons in an open-topped turret, designed to defend against low-flying aircraft. The Mk.III variant moved the radio from the turret to the hull, increasing crew efficiency and space within the fighting compartment.
- Highly detailed reproduction with newly molded parts for added armor and side skirts
- Accurate open turret detail with twin 20mm cannons, ammunition drums, and fittings
- Die-cast lower hull for added weight and realistic feel
- Easy-to-assemble tracks with realistic sag effect
- Includes two marking options for European theatre service
Approximately 600 Crusader AA Mk.II and Mk.III tanks were produced, providing valuable mobile anti-aircraft cover for advancing Allied forces in WWII. Their speed and mobility allowed them to keep pace with armoured units, while the rapid-firing 20mm cannons proved effective against both enemy aircraft and lightly armoured ground targets. This kit captures the distinctive features of the Crusader Mk.III AA, making it ideal for modellers looking to add variety to their 1/48 British armour collection.
