1:35 Mounts for additional ammunition boxes used on Soviet tanka like: T-54; T-55 or T-62

Mounts for additional ammunition boxes for the T-54, T-55 and T-62 1:35, Aber

A photo-etched metal detail set of mounts for additional ammunition boxes for the Soviet T-54, T-55 and T-62 tanks in 1:35 scale from the manufacturer Aber. It faithfully reproduces the thin metal brackets and frames fixed on the hull, which the kit's plastic parts cannot capture. This is an accessory, not a tank model.

The real subject

The Soviet postwar medium tanks T-54, T-55 and T-62 carried additional boxes and bins with ammunition and equipment on the hull. True mounts bring the surface of the model to life and make it possible to fit the extra equipment.

Fitting tips

Nip the parts out of the photo-etched fret and clean them up, make the bends on a bending tool or along the scored lines, and glue them with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue). Degrease the metal before painting and go over it with a coat of primer for adhesion. Place the small brackets after period photographs and try them against the model before gluing.

Who the set is for

• builders of the T-54, T-55 and T-62 tanks in 1:35 scale
• modelers who want true metal brackets instead of plastic
• advanced modelers and more skilled beginners used to photo-etched parts
• collectors of Soviet postwar equipment

An accessory for a plastic kit. The model itself, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
