Tamiya 35125 - 1/35 M151A2 MUTT with TOW Missile

The Tamiya 1/35 model of the U.S. M151A2 outfitted with a TOW Missile Launcher recreates a notable support vehicle used to counter armoured threats. The kit reflects how the BGM-71A TOW system extended engagement range beyond earlier direct-fire weapons.

Historical Notes and Modelling Value

The M151A2 served as a light utility platform adaptable to numerous roles. Adopting the TOW launcher represented a significant capability upgrade; this kit captures the equipment layout and offers a clear subject for modellers interested in modern-period military vehicles.

Parts Breakdown and Realism Elements

All major parts are injection-moulded in tan plastic and include a seated driver figure plus the prominent launcher unit beside the front seating. A tri-pod enables a dismounted firing pose, and the kit supplies extra items such as a spare wheel, an ax and a Jerry can to boost authenticity.
