Historical Miniature of the Crusader Mk.III

The Tamiya 32555 recreates the British Crusader Mk.III in 1/48 scale, reflecting key visual traits of the variant used during desert operations. The kit is aimed at modellers who want a compact yet accurate example of this period tank.

What Comes in the Kit

This edition includes specific components to portray the Mk.III's larger 6-pounder main gun. A die-cast chassis gives the finished model a realistic heft, and the assembly-type caterpillar tracks are designed to display a natural sag in the upper run.

Ways to Present the Model

The Crusader Mk.III is well suited to southern desert or theatre scenes and pairs neatly with other wartime vehicle kits. Three marking schemes are supplied, allowing different historical paint schemes to be reproduced.

  • Scale: 1/48
  • Main Gun: 6-pounder
  • Chassis: Die-cast for added realism
  • Tracks: Assembly type with realistic sag
  • Markings: Includes three types

Are decals and marking options included?

Yes, the kit contains three different types of markings so modellers can choose among several authentic wartime liveries.

How does this 1/48 scale model fit with other scales?

The 1/48 scale sits well alongside other 1/48 subjects for matching displays. For mixed-scale layouts, check comparative scale to avoid inconsistent proportions between vehicles.

What level of finish is needed to showcase the die-cast chassis?

A careful paint job and subtle weathering will highlight the weight and stance the die-cast chassis provides. Keep finishes thin to preserve panel detail and avoid obscuring small fittings.
