About product

T-55 medium tank (1:72, PST)

An injection-molded plastic kit of the postwar Soviet T-55 medium tank in 1:72 scale from PST. The kit builds the low hull with its characteristic hemispherical turret and 100 mm gun, holds multi-part tracks and is intended for modelers with experience of small-scale equipment. The exact number of parts and the decal options are not stated here.

The real subject

The T-55 grew out of the development of the T-54 tank and became one of the most produced tanks in history. It served in dozens of armies all over the world and took part in countless conflicts of the second half of the twentieth century; it was also built under license, among other places in what was then Czechoslovakia. Its low silhouette, rugged construction and easy maintenance gave it an exceptionally long life.

Building and painting tips

Cut the parts from the sprues and glue them with thin cement for plastic. First assemble the running gear and the tracks, then the hull and the turret. The model is covered in a single-color protective green; you can bring the surface alive with a primer, by lightening the large areas, bringing out the details with a dry brush and with weathering — mud and dust on the running gear with pigments. Finish with a matte varnish.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of postwar Soviet armor in 1:72
  • Anyone interested in the iconic T-54/T-55 tanks, including license production
  • More experienced modelers used to multi-part tracks

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

FAQ

Yes, it is an injection-molded plastic kit in 1:72 scale. It is supplied unassembled and unpainted, and cement for plastic is needed to glue it.

The T-55 grew out of the development of the T-54 and was given a number of improvements. It shares the low silhouette and the 100 mm gun with it, but it is among the most produced tanks of all.

Rather for more experienced modelers — the kit holds multi-part tracks and fine details, which call for patience.
