Trumpeter 07230 Soviet KV-1S Ehkranami: Detailed 1:72 Kit of Bolt-On Turret Armour

The Trumpeter 07230 Soviet KV-1S Ehkranami models the field modification where additional plates were bolted to the turret, raising protection to approximately 75mm. The 1:72 scale captures that wartime solution in a tidy, display-ready size for historians and modellers alike.

Context and appeal for modellers

This KV-1S variant illustrates adaptive engineering under combat conditions, and the kit brings those changes to a scale where rivets, plates and joins remain visible. It is well suited to collectors assembling period formations or single-subject displays focused on Soviet armour.

Construction notes and finish options

Containing 106 injection-moulded parts on seven sprues, the kit provides detailed components for the bolt-on armour and turret fittings. No metal or resin parts are supplied, but the plastic elements allow convincing results with careful painting and light weathering to show wear on the added plates.
