Tamiya US M1A1 Abrams Tank (1:35 Scale)

Introduced to the U.S. Army in 1980 and named in honour of General Creighton Abrams, the Abrams series became a defining modern main battle tank. This Tamiya US M1A1 Abrams Tank model kit recreates the upgraded M1A1 variant, developed in the mid-1980s with a move from the 105mm gun to the M256 120mm smoothbore cannon and increased frontal armour on the lower hull and turret.

The M1A1 update also brought visible changes including an enlarged rear turret bustle stowage rack, a new-style crosswind sensor, a revised gunner’s sight mount, and reinforced suspension and transmission. Supplied as a detailed 1:35 scale model kit, it is intended for adult constructors and suits military modellers looking to add an iconic U.S. armoured vehicle to a collection.
