M46 Patton: A Cold War Icon in 1/72 Scale

The Trumpeter 07288 US M46 Patton Medium Tank model kit offers an intricate representation of one of the key armored vehicles from the early Cold War era. This 1/72 scale model captures the essence of the M46 Patton, a tank that replaced the M26 Pershing and served as a principal medium battle tank for the U.S. Army from 1949 to the mid-1950s. Known for its enhanced performance over its predecessors, the M46 was named after General George S. Patton Jr., a nod to its robust design and battlefield prowess. Although primarily used by the U.S., it saw limited export to Belgium.
