Tamiya Military Model Kit
T34/76 Chtz Version (1/35) 35149
This 1/35 scale model kit recreates the T34/76 Chtz Version, a distinctive variant of the legendary Soviet T-34 tank manufactured at the Chelyabinsk Tractor Works (ChTZ) in 1943. Built during the height of the Second World War, this version featured a one-piece cast turret with rounded roof edges and a unique dip along the lower edge, setting it apart from other production models.
- Authentic cast turret with accurate contouring and surface texture.
- Detailed periscope and pistol ports as seen on the 1943 Chtz variant.
- Includes accurate 5-speed transmission housing and chassis detail.
- Realistic tracks, suspension and drive components.
- Perfect for diorama use or as a standalone display piece.
Manufactured in limited numbers, the Chtz Version incorporated improvements such as an upgraded transmission, modified clutch, and engine refinements to extend operational life between maintenance cycles. This rare variant was part of the Soviet Union’s urgent production drive at Tankograd, ensuring the Red Army remained equipped to face advancing German forces on the Eastern Front.
