Hobby Boss 83825 1/35 T-40 Soviet Light Tank Kit Special Edition  [HB-83825]

Hobby Boss 1/35 Russian T-40 Light Tank Kit Details

This 1/35 scale entry from Hobby Boss recreates the T-40 light tank with attention to the mechanical updates that marked its development. The model captures the shift to a welded hull and torsion-bar suspension, reflecting the evolution from the T-37 and T-38 series.

Why Model the T-40?

The T-40 offered improved hull protection thanks to its boat-shaped welded design and stepped up armament with a 12.7mm DShK heavy machine gun, unlike the older 7.62mm DT. Builders receive a kit of over 300 parts, allowing for detailed assembly and accurate surface representation.

Construction Advice

Expect a rewarding build with multi-directional slide moulded parts and fine photo-etched details. The 182 separate track links are a highlight for modellers who prefer authentic, articulated track runs and realistic suspension layout.
