About product

Challenger 2 TES in 1:35 scale from Rye Field Model

An injection-molded plastic kit in 1:35 scale from the manufacturer Rye Field Model. The subject is the modern British main battle tank Challenger 2 in the TES version, that is with extensive add-on armor for deployment into a combat area. The model is meant to be glued and painted and it contains a range of fine parts. The exact content of the package (photo-etch, the type of tracks, the decal schemes) is given by Rye Field Model on the packaging and in the enclosed instructions.

The real subject

The Challenger 2 is a British main battle tank of the current generation. The abbreviation TES stands for Theatre Entry Standard, the standard for entering a combat area: it is a package of add-on armor and protective elements with which the vehicle is completed before deployment on demanding operations. The added armor panels, the bar (cage) armor and the further protection change the silhouette of the tank so much that it earned a nickname referring to a robot from popular culture. The basic Challenger 2 is among the well armored Western tanks and has served in the British army for a long time.

Building and painting tips

Even on a modern tank it pays to start with the running gear and to finish the underside before the hull is closed. If the package contains pre-assembled or link tracks, put them together carefully. Glue the broken-up add-on and cage armor precisely, so that it seats without gaps, because it is the most conspicuous element of this version. Glue the plastic with thin cement and fix the fine and photo-etched parts carefully. Apply a primer before painting. On modern camouflage, restrained washes in the recesses and fine pigments for dust and mud on the running gear and the lower areas come out well.

Who the model is for

  • for fans of modern British and Western armored vehicles
  • for modelers drawn to the striking silhouette of the TES version with its cage armor
  • for intermediate and advanced builders
  • for makers of dioramas from contemporary military operations

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