1:35 British main battle tank Challenger II with workable tracks
Compared to the Challenger 1 MBT, which was in service during the Persian Gulf War, the Challenger 2 features improved second-generation Chobham armor capable of withstanding armor piercing and projectiles. The fire control system was updated with the latest digital technology, including a panoramic commander's sight with a built-in laser rangefinder and a thermal sight. The 120mm L30 main gun provides improved muzzle velocity and accuracy and allows the Challenger 2 to fire armor-piercing, HESH, smoke and depleted uranium rounds. Special modifications to the tanks deployed in Iraq include reactive armor added to the front, composite armor to the sides, a special hood to reduce exhaust heat, fabric skirts to reduce dust ingestion, a Commander's Independent Thermal View (CITV) and panels for combat identification (CIP).
Model kit features:
- new highly detailed moulds
- workable tracks links & suspension
- PE parts
