1/35 RUSSIAN HEAVY TANK KV-1 MODEL 1941 EARLY PRODUCTION

    Length: 198
    mm. Image shows painted and assembled kit.

    A Weighty Adversary

    The Soviet KV-1 was officially adopted in 1939 and went through a number
    of variants. Model 1941 KV-1s employed the 76.2mm ZIS-5 gun, which
    could tear through the armor on contemporary German tanks; its early
    production variants had a welded turret with armor up to 75mm thick, and
    hung tough in fierce fighting with German armor following the Nazi
    German invasion of the Soviet Union in June 1941, contributing to the
    Soviet resistance that would eventually turn the tables and push back
    the German advance.

    Soldiers were modelers, too?

    It is said that German front line troops were provided with wooden and
    paper models of the KV-1 in a scale of around 1/20, to help identify the
    tanks and formulate counter-strategies. This kit includes a version in
    miniature 1/35 scale on the painting guide to cut out and use in
    dioramas of tactical meetings and the like.
