Scale model profile: M8 Greyhound

The Tamiya 25196 - 1/35 M8 Greyhound Armored Car Model Kit presents a compact, detailed interpretation of the US light armoured car used in World War II. The model captures the vehicle's manoeuvrability and its reconnaissance role, including the distinct 37mm gun and exposed turret arrangement.

The kit reflects authentic period details such as the 110hp gas engine and a maximum speed of about 88.5 km/h. Production ran to over 8,500 vehicles between March 1943 and April 1944, with service across US and allied units. Parts layout and moulding are designed to give modellers an accurate and satisfying assembly experience.

Does the kit include interior detail?

The kit focuses on external accuracy and chassis detail; internal compartment detail is basic, suitable for display with the open-top turret visible.

Is the kit radio control ready?

No, this is a static display kit and is not designed for RC conversion without significant modification.

How should I weather this model for realism?

Light washes, dry brushing and mud effects on the lower hull and wheels will add realism. Apply weathering in layers to build a natural worn look.
