Tamiya welcomes a new addition to 1/35 Military Miniature Series – this time, the Russian Heavy Tank KV-2, a heavier variant of the KV-1 (Item 35372). The Russian Heavy Tank KV-2 was developed as the combination of the KV-1 chassis and a massive, boxy turret equipped with a 152mm howitzer.

Although its weight caused frequent machinery failure during the early of the German-Soviet War from June, 1941, it’s also recorded that one KV-2 single handedly held up one German division for a few days. The KV-2 concept also played a role in the development of heavy self-propelled guns such as the JSU-152

• This is a 1/35 scale plastic model assembly kit. • The distinctive bulky form of the Russian Heavy Tank KV-2 is realistically captured in style based on extensive research of actual vehicle. • Road wheels are no-rib types which were seen on the KV-2 and early KV-1 models, plus return rollers with rubber
rims. • Features large-diameter idler wheels which were equipped with the early and middle production models. (The KV-1 model has small-diameter late production type.) • The massive turret with 152mm howitzer is box-type assembly, and its surface such as armour plate and weld lines are authentically depicted. • Main gun barrel has a realistic rendering of rifling near the muzzle. • The lower and upper hulls, and tracks are the same as the ones of the KV-1 kit. • Assembly type tracks feature one-piece straight sections and recreate upper run “sag” in style. • Choose between open or closed hatches and fender-top tool box. • Comes with two marking options, one crew torso and one commander full figure
