Hobby Boss 82409 1/35 LVTP-7 Tracked Landing Vehicle Model Kit - Collector Edition  [HB-82409]

Hobby Boss 82409 1/35 LVTP-7 Tracked Landing Vehicle Description

The Hobby Boss 1/35 LVTP-7 Landing Vehicle Tracked kit presents a detailed scale rendition of a modern amphibious transporter. The AAVP 7A1 configuration modelled includes an MK19 40mm grenade launcher and the M2 HB CAL 50 heavy machine gun, showing full 360 degree traverse and an engagement range near 1,500 metres.

Construction and Presentation

Parts replicate applique armour and an automatic fire suppression system to increase realism on completion. The upgraded transmission and bow plane details are captured in the mouldings, so careful assembly and painting will highlight these features on display.

Role History and Operational Details

The operational AAVP 7A1 typically carries a crew of three and up to 21 combat equipped troops, or significant cargo, reflecting its role in amphibious operations. That versatility makes the subject a valuable addition to a modern military collection.
