Trumpeter PT-76 00379 1/35 Plastic Model Kit — Tracked Amphibious Tank  [TP00379]

Kit Summary — Trumpeter PT-76 00379 in 1/35

This 1/35-scale plastic model kit portrays the Soviet PT-76 amphibious light tank and is supplied as a tracked military modelling subject for display work.

Designed in the late 1940s, the PT-76 served as a light amphibious reconnaissance and infantry-support tank with Soviet forces. Its welded hull and water propulsion allowed river and inland water operations while the 76mm main armament and three-man crew gave it basic combat capability. The vehicle saw service across the Warsaw Pact and in several export customers during the Cold War.

The kit depicts the hull, turret and running gear typical of the PT-76 family. Vinyl tracks are included to preserve the low hull line without link assembly. A single photo-etched fret supplies finer fittings. The parts quantity and sprue arrangement are tailored to traditional glue-and-paint assembly practices common in 1/35 armoured modelling.

Model measurements and box dimensions are taken from the manufacturer's specification. Builders should allocate standard 1/35 paints and finishing materials; decals are not listed as included items. Reference photography is advised for accurate weathering and marking choices.

A compact 1/35 representation of the PT-76 that provides a moderate parts count and basic etched detail, suitable for builders focusing on tracked amphibious subjects and cold war displays.
