Centurion Mk.III in 1/35 Scale

The Tamiya 25412 - 1/35 British Centurion Mk.III kit provides a faithful scale interpretation of a noted post-war tank. Praised for its rugged design and firepower, the Centurion Mk.III established its reputation during the Korean War and this kit captures those core characteristics.

Origins and Key Design Points

Conceived in 1942 as a heavy cruiser tank, the Centurion aimed to match and surpass enemy armour. Distinctive design elements included sloped frontal armour, a 600hp engine, and Horstmann suspension. The Mk.III, rolled out in 1948, was equipped with the 20 pounder gun which featured in many subsequent engagements.

Model Kit Specifics

Tamiya's 1/35 representation reproduces the Mk.III turret and hull forms, with the option to fit the 20 pounder with or without a canvas cover. The kit also contains detailed Horstmann suspension parts and belt-type tracks to enhance realism.

What is the assembly type of this kit?

This is an unassembled plastic kit intended for glue-and-paint construction rather than a ready-built model.

Can I display the gun with a fabric cover?

Yes, the kit allows you to portray the 20 pounder either with the canvas cover fitted or without, giving display flexibility.
