B1 Centauro 1/35 8x8 Wheeled Tank Destroyer Model from Trumpeter

The Trumpeter 1/35 plastic kit models the Italian B1 Centauro 8x8 tank destroyer and emphasises authentic external geometry and visible suspension detail for presentation-oriented builds.

Conceived in Italy as an eight-wheeled armoured platform with a heavy gun, the Centauro entered production in 1989. It was deployed with a UN mission to Somalia in the early 1990s and later sold to countries such as Spain and Egypt.

The set reproduces the exterior and running gear across numerous components. The finished model has a length of 242.5mm and the kit includes copper cable for detailing as well as pre-printed decals for national markings.

A carefully detailed Centauro kit in 1:35 scale that supplies a large parts count and suspension detail, ideal for modellers focused on historically accurate wheeled armour.

The model is 1:35 scale; when finished it measures approximately 242.5mm long, making it suitable for standard 1:35 armour displays and dioramas.
There are eight sprues plus separate lower and upper hull pieces, providing detailed components for the hull, turret and running gear across 385 parts.
The kit supplies copper cable intended for representing external wiring and small fittings, useful for raising the fidelity of engine bay or deck-mounted details.
Decals come pre-printed for Italian Army service, allowing authentic national markings to be applied without additional transfers.
The kit includes eight separate rubber tyres which, when assembled with the wheel parts, provide a realistic appearance suitable for display models.
