Hobby Boss 83819 1/35 Soviet T-37A Scale Modelling Kit  [HB-83819]

Compact Scale Model of the Soviet T-37A

The Hobby Boss 1/35 Soviet T-37A Light Tank kit reproduces the small but historically important amphibious tank. As the first widely produced amphibious tank, the T-37A served primarily in scouting and light support roles for Soviet troops.

Historical Context and Deployment

Designed in the early 1930s with inspiration from British tankette concepts, the T-37A took part in early Soviet campaigns such as actions in Poland and the Winter War. Many units were lost during the initial stages of the larger conflict, though remaining examples continued in training and rear area duties until 1944.

Construction Features and Finishing

Featuring over 320 parts, this kit uses multi-directional slide moulding to capture details. Photo-etched items and separate track links are included to increase fidelity, and the model benefits from careful painting and weathering techniques to highlight its small-scale nuances.
