Hobby Boss 84816 1/48 Scale KV-2 Tank Collector Kit  [HB-84816]

Hobby Boss 1/48 KV-2 Tank Kit Introduction

The Hobby Boss 1/48 KV-2 model focuses on the tank's distinctive heavy turret and broad hull, offering a compact but detailed representation for collectors. The kit highlights the vehicle's unique profile and gives modellers a chance to recreate a notable piece of wartime engineering.

Design Purpose and Field Performance

The KV-2 was conceived to deliver heavy artillery fire in support of ground forces, using a 152mm howitzer mounted in a large turret. That design delivered significant striking power but also imposed limits on mobility and turret handling in uneven ground, factors that make the subject interesting to model on a small scale.

Why Builders Choose This Kit

Builders will find precise plastic components that capture the key structural elements of the KV-2, making it rewarding to assemble and paint. Its 1/48 scale makes it compatible with similar kits for shelf grouping or compact diorama compositions.
