Russian Army Main Battle Tank T-90A Meng Model 1/35

This time I'm going to build a Russian T-90 tank. It is the most advanced main tank of the Russian army equipped with welded type turret called Vladimir turret. The T-90A is equipped with a Vladimir turret, and this turret strengthens its defenses.

Soviet Army Tank T-34/76 Type-1943 Tamiya 1/35

I'm just going to make Tamiya's rather old kit, the T-34/76. I will try this Modelkasten connected movable track. There are detailed instructions, so it's better to read through them before setting up my Tamiya kit.

Soviet Army T-62 Main Battle Tank Mod.1962 Trumpeter 1/35

This tank is the world's first tank equipped with a smoothbore gun. It resembles the T-55 but features a 115mm smoothbore gun turret. Compared to previous tanks, the firepower was improved, but due to the poor performance of the sighting device, the accuracy rate was extremely low at more than 1,500m.

BMPT “Terminator” Russian Fire Support Combat Vehicle Meng Model 1/35

I will try to make a Russian military fire support vehicle, Terminator. I was wondering what the official name is, but it doesn't make sense. According to the Wiki, BMP-T is better for the original notation. It's with Boyevaya Mashina Podderzhki Tankov and a Tank Support Fighting Vehicle in English. The chassis looks like a T-90 at first glance. The turret has a very unusual shape.

Soviet Heavy Tank Object 279 Panda Hobby 1/35

I built a Russian tank for the first time in a while. It's a Panda Hobby Object 279. This kit seems to be easy to build the body, so it's better to think of it as a kit to build a connecting track. I can't say it's high quality, but it looks pretty cool when completed.

STZ-5 Soviet Artillery Tractor Vulcan Scale Models 1/35

I built a tractor that the Soviet army used during World War II. It is a kit of Vulcan scale Models. I'm not so sure about the slogan, but I think it might be "Kill the fascist!"

T-90 Russian Main Battle Tank Zvezda 1/35

It is a kit of Zvezda's T-90 tank. The box assembly of the tank body I was most concerned about was completed without any problem. The lower part of the tank body at the bottom of the chassis was slightly curved. However, it was okay to fix it with my hand and adjust it so that it fits well with the parts on the side.

T-34/76 1942/43 Factory No.183 AFV Club 1/35

It's the AFV Club T-34/76 tank. Each factory has a slightly different shape, and the kit is "made in 183 factories." Waffle type track belt from MiniArt is used. When I purchased it, I mistakenly purchased an internal reproduction model of clear parts, so I make it normally.

T-72B Mod. 1990 Russian Main Battle Tank Trumpeter 1/35

This is a Trumpeter T-72B Mod. 1990. There are connected track belts from the beginning, and it is easy to assemble with appropriate etched parts. As I thought, it is a modern tank, so the number of parts is quite large. It's hard to reach the painting.

Missile SS-1C Scud B With MAZ-543 TEL Soviet Army Dragon 1/35

Dragon SS -1 C Scud B and eight wheels drive large military vehicle kit. As you can see from the package, it is a little old kit now. Since it was big, I tried to make it sturdy to some extent, so I buried putty in the gap of the tire and hardened it with a relatively strong instant adhesive.

KV-1 Type-C Russian Heavy Tank Tamiya 1/35

This is the old kit of Tamiya's KV-1 heavy tank. I used this because I had a leftover belt-style Trumpeter. Adhesion is possible with plastic adhesives, so subtle looseness of track can be expressed only by adhesion. This time, the metal wire is stuck to the chassis to loosen the track.

Object 279 Soviet Prototype Heavy Tank Amusing Hobby 1/35

This is Amusing Hobby Object 279. If you like to wear a combination track, don't hesitate to do this! The vehicle with a vicious form that can withstand a nuclear war is popular among Russian tank fans. It is rumored that the Amusing Hobby is the hardest to assemble among the 3 competitive production companies, but it was completed successfully.

T-80U Russian Main Battle Tank Xact 1/35

It's a Xact T-80U kit. I was surprised about what to do when I opened the kit box and found a twisted belt track, but otherwise, it was a great kit. I wonder if this manufacturer is no longer active. Business continuity is difficult. I tried T-80, which is the guard of the Soviet Army.

SU-122 Russian Tank Destroyer Tamiya 1/35

This is Tamiya SU-122 Russian Tank Destroyer. As expected, the attached belt-type track wear doesn't have much texture, so I used the connecting type track of AFV Club T-34. I recommend it because it is not so expensive. I think SU-122 has a thick gun barrel and is very strong, but since it is a howitzer, SU-85 and SU-100 seem to be stronger in terms of the ability to shoot an opponent vehicle.
