Trumpeter 00386 1/35 Italian B1 Centauro Tank Destroyer Kit

The Trumpeter 00386 1/35 scale kit recreates the Italian B1 Centauro for UK scale enthusiasts who value accuracy and finish. The Centauro became operational with the Italian Army from 1989 and earned praise for its mobility and firepower during international deployments.

Design Background and International Use

The Centauro platform pairs a heavy calibre main armament with wheeled mobility and modern systems, making it attractive to several armed forces including Spain and Egypt. This model seeks to reflect those core design elements in miniature.

Construction Notes and Collector Appeal

Builders can expect clear parts separation and a detailed parts count that rewards careful assembly. Completed examples make attractive exhibits in modern armour collections and respond well to weathering techniques.
