Hobby Boss 1/35 ZLC2000 Airborne IFV Model Kit

The ZLC2000 airborne infantry fighting vehicle (IFV) has been a significant addition to China's airborne units since 2003. This model kit by Hobby Boss offers an accurate representation of this pioneering Chinese armored vehicle, notable for its 25-mm turret-mounted cannon and HJ-73C anti-tank guided missile launcher. Designed for serious model builders, this kit captures the unique features of the ZLC2000, which is known for its capability to be airdropped from medium transport aircraft. Unlike some Russian counterparts, the ZLC2000 is deployed separately from its crew, adding an interesting historical note to its design.
