Miniature M8 Greyhound: design and service record

The Tamiya 25196 - 1/35 M8 Greyhound Armored Car Model Kit reproduces the speedy light armoured car that served in World War II, presenting the vehicle's reconnaissance role with clear detail. The model highlights the 37mm gun and the signature open-top turret used on scouting missions.

The kit reflects known specifications of the original machine, including a 110hp petrol engine and a top speed close to 88.5 km/h. Over 8,500 M8s were built from March 1943 to April 1944, and the vehicle saw action with US and allied formations. The parts and instructions aim to deliver an accurate finished model for display.

  • Scale: 1/35

Spare parts may be sourced through specialist aftermarket suppliers or directly from parts dealers; check part numbers and sprue diagrams when ordering replacements.

How accurate is the scale detailing?

The model aims for high fidelity in external features and chassis components, making it a reliable representation for collectors and scale enthusiasts.
