1/35 KV BIG TURRER
Trumpeter 1/35 Russian KV Big Turret is a plastic kit of the Soviet heavy tank KV-2 Model 1939 with the large turret and 152 mm howitzer. It contains 208 parts. Paints and glues needed for assembly are not included.
The KV heavy tank was designed as a breakthrough tank. Its 76.2 mm L-11 gun, however, was poorly suited to dealing with bunkers and fortifications, so a version with a much heavier weapon was developed alongside the standard tanks. The first vehicles received a new tall, seven-sided turret mounting the 152 mm M-10 howitzer. This version, which differed in many details from the later standard type, is known as the KV "Big Turret" or KV-2 Model 1939.
The Trumpeter kit in 1/35 scale contains, according to the manufacturer, 208 parts on 9 sprues. The finished model is about 196 mm long, 95 mm wide and 99 mm high, and the tall boxy turret stands out in any collection of Soviet tanks. The manufacturer specifies a Soviet army paint scheme.
The large flat surfaces of the turret and hull offer plenty of room for green colour modulation, chipping and signs of wear. Paints and glues needed for assembly are not included.
