HobbyBoss 1:35 Soviet T-40 Light Tank

83825

£27.00 GBP

The T-40 was a Soviet amphibious light tank of the Second World War which could ford a river without a bridge. It was an improvement over the T-37 and T-38, and had a 12.7mm (0.5 in) DShK machine gun instead of the 7.62mm DT machine gun mounted on the T-37 and T-38. The boat-shaped hull was entirely welded, in contrast to the riveted hulls of the T-37 and T-38.

In the 1930s the Soviet Union produced over 1,500 amphibious tanks. Although the T-40 had a superior design compared to the T-37 and T-38, the USSR favoured simpler tank designs due to the pressures of war. Only 222 T-40's were produced.
