The Tamiya 89792 kit presents a meticulously crafted 1/35 scale model of the Italian Heavy Tank P40, a significant piece of WWII history. The P40, standing for 'Pesante' (heavy), was Italy's only heavy tank produced during the war, adopted in 1940. This model captures the tank's unique features, including its bogey-style wheels, leaf spring suspension, and riveted hull construction, reminiscent of the earlier Carro Armato M13/40. With its authentic detailing, this model serves as both a challenging build and a stunning display piece.
This limited edition kit includes assembly type tracks and photo-etched parts such as exhaust covers and jerry can racks, allowing for a highly detailed finish. It also comes with markings for three different versions, including Fiat Ansaldo's prototype and German variants. For enthusiasts seeking to enhance their model further, a separate metal gun barrel is available.
