Tamiya Military Model Kit
U.S. Army M42 Duster (1/35) 35161
This 1/35 scale Tamiya kit recreates the M42 Duster, a post-war anti-aircraft vehicle developed for the U.S. Army. Entering service in 1953, it combined mobility, firepower, and versatility, making it a reliable companion to tank units during the Cold War era.
- Accurate depiction of the open-top turret with twin 40mm cannons.
- Detailed interior with gunner and loader stations, seats, and stowed rifles.
- Belt-type tracks that can be painted and assembled using Tamiya cement.
- Includes three crew figures in target acquisition poses.
- Three marking options covering U.S. Army, Japan Ground Self Defense Force, and former West German Army service.
Powered by a 500hp engine, the M42 could reach speeds of up to 70km/h. Though designed primarily for anti-aircraft duties, it proved effective against ground targets in conflicts such as the Vietnam War, cementing its place as a versatile armoured asset in the mid-20th century.
