Trumpeter 05565 1/35 Russian T-80B Model Summary

The Trumpeter 1/35 Russian T-80B Main Battle Tank model kit provides a faithful miniature of a notable Cold War era MBT. Famous for its turbine engine and upgraded defensive systems, the T-80B is rendered here with attention to the tank's overall silhouette and component detail.

Model History and Authentic Detail

Debuting in the late 1970s, the T-80B combined composite armour technology with improved mobility. The kit reflects those developments with accurate replication of the turret, hull contours and running gear suitable for close-up modelling work.

Building Advice and Collector Appeal

Expect a moderately challenging build thanks to many small, precise parts. The kit is produced from quality plastic and requires glue and paint to reach a display standard, after which it makes a strong addition to any military modelling collection.
