Tamiya Military Model Kit
Russian T-62A Tank (1/35) 35108
This 1/35 scale Tamiya kit recreates the Russian T-62A, a Cold War-era main battle tank that evolved from the T-54/55 series. The T-62A retained the low profile, rounded turret design but introduced improved armour protection and upgraded firepower, making it one of the most formidable tanks of its time.
- Highly detailed 1/35 scale plastic model kit.
- Faithfully reproduces the T-62A’s distinctive cast turret and low-silhouette hull.
- Includes main gun, secondary armament, and optional open or closed hatches.
- Realistic link-type tracks for added authenticity.
- Ideal for Cold War and Soviet armour diorama settings.
History: The T-62A was officially unveiled during the May 1965 Victory Day Parade marking 20 years since the end of World War II. Developed as an evolution of the T-54/55, it featured advanced armour and improved weaponry designed to counter new NATO tank designs. Though produced in limited numbers compared to the standard T-62, the T-62A played a pivotal role in Soviet armoured development and set the stage for future main battle tanks in the USSR’s arsenal.
