The PT-76 was designed as a light amphibious tank, equipped with a 76mm main gun and manned by three crew members. Its light armour was compensated by the capability to operate across rivers and shallow waters, serving reconnaissance and support roles.
Trumpeter's 1/35 kit supplies parts that mirror the PT-76s distinctive hull lines and turret detail, giving modellers an opportunity to present an accurate Cold War era subject. The assembly challenges reward careful painting and finishing choices.
A completed PT-76 complements other Cold War models, illustrating contrasts in armouring and amphibious design approaches from the period.
