■Product Description
[The green giant that fought to defend the homeland]
The KV-1 was a heavy tank of the Soviet army that was officially adopted in 1939. Among the various types of KV-1s produced, the vehicle known as the 1941 model was equipped with the long-barreled 76.2mm ZIS-5 gun, which could penetrate the armor of contemporary German tanks from long range. Early production vehicles had a turret with a basic armor thickness of 75mm, assembled by welding armor plates. In June 1941, with the start of the German-Soviet war, the KV-1 was deployed and tenaciously defended the battlefield, making use of its high defensive and offensive capabilities. It stopped the German army, which boasted of being invincible, and greatly contributed to the subsequent victories of the Soviet army.

This is a 1/35 scale plastic model assembly kit of the KV-1. ★Total length 198mm, total width 95mm. ★Based on research of the actual vehicle, it reproduces the early production vehicle of the 1941 model equipped with a welded turret and road wheels with built-in shock absorbers. ★The rough armor surface, the texture of the cast surface, and the welding patterns are also realistically finished. ★Each hatch and the toolbox on the fender can be opened or closed. ★The tracks are of the link-and-length assembly type with straight sections as one piece. ★Includes one half-figure of a commander and two types of decals.
【Papercraft included】
The German army, struggling against the KV-1, distributed wooden and paper models of about 1/20 scale to frontline units for identification and study. This can be reproduced as a 1/35 scale papercraft and printed on the included color painting guide. The completed mini KV-1, about 2cm in length, would be interesting to use in dioramas depicting German soldiers studying tactics.
