SU-85 Development and Combat Use

The Tamiya 89797 presents the Soviet SU-85 tank destroyer, which used the T-34 chassis and mounted the 85mm D-5T gun. The model references its service in the December 1943 Kiev operations, offering a compact but informative subject for scale modelling.

High definition moulding and the included Weathering Master set make it straightforward to create authentic wear, rust and operational grime. This kit is best suited to modellers with some prior kit-building and painting experience.

What surface preparation is recommended before weathering?

Cleanly sand and remove mould release, then prime the model. Apply base colours and a suitable clear coat where needed before using weathering powders to achieve the best adhesion and tonal control.

Are there any tricky assembly areas to watch for?

Take care with fine fittings around the gun mantlet and roadwheel assemblies. Dry-fit parts before gluing and use precise tools for small components to ensure alignment.
