Italeri 1/35 Leopard 1 A5 - Scale Representation of a Cold War Tank

Introduced in the 1960s, the Leopard 1 A5 was created to address the evolving armoured threats of the Cold War. Known for dependable mobility and solid mechanical design, it served with Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Norway and Italy among others.

The Italeri 1/35 Leopard 1 A5 kit aims to mirror the tank's external details and proportions. It provides a reliable platform for modellers who prioritise historical fidelity and careful finishing.

Expect intricate assembly steps and the need for precise glueing and trimming. The kit is appropriate for builders who have tackled similar 1/35 armour projects.

Displaying Your Finished Model

Completed, the Leopard 1 A5 makes a strong addition to any Cold War collection. It fits well with other 1/35 models and can be enhanced with basework or diorama elements for museum-style presentation.

The kit offers good external detail and accurate proportions for a 1/35 plastic model. It is well suited for modellers who want a realistic base for painting and weathering.
If parts or decals are missing, contact the retailer or Italeri customer service. Many aftermarket decal sheets and accessory packs are also available to complement this kit.
Keep completed models away from direct sunlight and dust. A display case or sealed shelf reduces fading and physical damage, and consider silica gel for long term storage in humid environments.
