1/35 BRDM-1
Trumpeter 1/35 BRDM-1 is a plastic kit of the Soviet amphibious armoured scout car. It has over 300 parts, rubber tyres and photo-etched parts. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The BRDM-1 was a Soviet amphibious 4×4 armoured scout car introduced in the late 1950s. Four retractable belly wheels helped it cross trenches and soft ground, and a water jet propelled it when swimming. It was later superseded by the BRDM-2, and vehicles were supplied to many other countries.
According to the manufacturer, the Trumpeter kit in 1/35 scale consists of over 300 parts. The lower and upper hulls are multi-slide moulded, keeping fine detail without awkward seams. The wheels come with rubber tyres, and photo-etched parts complete the package.
In 1/35 scale the compact scout car suits a collection of Soviet Cold War vehicles and works well alongside the later BRDM-2 or armoured personnel carriers in a diorama. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
