Authentic Light Amphibious Tank Model

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.

Historical Modelling and Kit Features

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.

Display and Comparative Value

A completed PT-76 complements other Cold War models, illustrating contrasts in armouring and amphibious design approaches from the period.
