Description

Tamiya made 1/48 Russian KV-1B w/Applique Armor (32545) Tanks Military Series assembly kit

Tamiya announces the launch of the up-armored KV-1B in our ever-growing 1/48 MM Series. Show it using the previously released KV-1 to show the distinctions between your two, line it up with our other Russian vehicles such as the T-34 and GAZ-67B, or pit it against its German adversaries just like the Tiger I and Panther in battle dioramas.

In regards to the KV-1B Armed with a powerful 76.2mm primary weapon and built with 75mm front armor, the KV-1 tank ended up being an unpleasant shock for the German army once they invaded Russia in summer time of 1941. Impervious to almost all anti-tank guns, the KV-1 proved to be a solid opponent, but the introduction of more recent, stronger German tanks lessened its advantage whilst the war went on. In response, additional armor plates were bolted onto the hull and turret to increase security, causing the KV-1B variation.
