1:35 MiniArt 35128 Japanese Tank Crew WWII - 5 Figures Plastic Model kit

Bring more life and historical context to your Japanese WWII diorama with the 1:35 MiniArt 35128 Japanese Tank Crew. This plastic model kit contains five unassembled and unpainted figures and makes an interesting addition to scenes featuring Japanese tanks and armoured units from the Second World War.

Japan had been conducting large-scale military operations in China since 1937 and formally entered World War II with the attack on Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941. By the end of 1941, the Imperial Japanese Army had 51 divisions and, together with numerous independent units, approximately 1.7 million personnel. Japanese armoured vehicle development progressed more slowly during the 1920s and 1930s than in Europe. Experience from the conflict with the Soviet Union in 1938-1939 partly changed this situation, although limited industrial capacity and greater emphasis on naval and air power continued to influence tank development.

Notable Japanese tanks included the Type 89 Chi-Ro, Type 95 Ha-Go and Type 97 Chi-Ha. Experimental designs such as the Type 5 Chi-Ri did not progress beyond the prototype or development stage. Japanese tanks were primarily designed to support infantry rather than conduct independent manoeuvre operations and were less suited to fighting enemy tanks. These five crew figures let you bring that historical context into your 1:35 scale collection. At Most-Models.com, you also benefit from fast delivery and excellent customer service.
