Detailed description of Trumpeter 00382 PT-76B 1/35

The kit recreates the PT-76B in 1/35 scale as a plastic assembly intended for modellers who value scale-accurate external detail and realistic display results. Parts are organised to allow conventional build stages and subassemblies.

Introduced in the early 1950s by the Soviet Union, the PT-76 served as a light amphibious reconnaissance and infantry-support tank. Its welded aluminium hull reduced weight, it carried a 76mm main gun, and it could perform amphibious crossings. The platform was widely adopted across Warsaw Pact forces and allied states for reconnaissance and riverine tasks, while its armour and crew protection were lighter than those of main battle tanks.

This boxing provides Polish Marine Brigade decals for vehicle number 4607 in a single-colour camouflage. Notable kit features include a slide-molded lower hull and separate upper hull components for improved assembly accuracy. Builders should refer to reference photos for authentic camouflage and weathering techniques.
