About product

Soviet BT-5 light tank 1:35 (Zvezda)

An injection-molded plastic kit of the Soviet BT-5 fast tank in 1:35 scale from Zvezda. The kit offers a faithful rendering of the hull, the turret with its 45 mm gun and the characteristic running gear, plus waterslide decals for several options. It is supplied as plastic to be assembled and painted.

The real subject

The BT-5 belonged to the family of Soviet fast tanks (Bystrokhodny tank) derived from the Christie design. It excelled in mobility and could run on tracks as well as on wheels. It was used among other places in the Spanish Civil War, in the fighting at Khalkhin Gol, in the Winter War and in the early stage of the Second World War. Its armament was a 45 mm gun.

Building and painting tips

Finish and paint the running gear and the lower hull before closing up. Glue with thin cement for plastic; a primer undercoat and an airbrush are advisable. The typical green shade is brought to life by filters, washes in the recesses and dust pigments on the running gear for a faithful combat look.

Who the model is for

  • For collectors of interwar and early-war Soviet equipment
  • For modelers interested in the development of tank design
  • For an intermediate level of experience
  • As the basis for a diorama from the Spanish Civil War or the Eastern Front

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
