Hobby Boss 1/35 Soviet T-20 Komsomolets 1940 Introduction

The T-20 Armored Tractor, known as the Komsomolets, was a compact support vehicle used by Soviet forces to tow guns and move small crews. This 1/35 Hobby Boss kit recreates the 1940 variant with attention to the tractor's characteristic armored forward compartment and utilitarian rear area.

Why Model This Vehicle

Constructing this kit provides insight into early wartime vehicle design and rewards careful builders with a tidy finished piece. The moulded parts represent the Komsomolets' key shapes and are suitable for painting and weathering to match period service conditions.

Operational Background and Use

Produced in the late 1930s, the T-20 saw extensive employment towing light artillery and transporting crews, playing a supportive role in mechanised formations. This model helps enthusiasts study form and function from that era.
