Scale Centurion Mk.III by Tamiya 56045 for RC Enthusiasts

The Tamiya Centurion Mk.III appeals to both scale modellers and RC pilots wanting a historically grounded subject. Developed to meet postwar armoured threats, the Centurion was a key British design that saw notable service after World War II, including combat in Korea where it showed strong reliability under tough conditions.

Scale Detail and Mechanical Fidelity

Tamiya's 1/16 rendition emphasises authentic detail with a polished aluminium main gun barrel and a faithful Horstmann suspension system. The kit also offers an optional fabric gun shield for added realism when displaying the completed model.

The 20 Pounder Accurately Modelled

The prominent 20 pounder main gun is accurately represented, alongside the tank's sloped armour and sturdy profile that made it effective on the battlefield and visually distinctive at scale.

Enhanced Play with Optional Battle Electronics

Add the Tamiya Battle System for competitive skirmishes with other 1/16 scale tanks; the included control unit and speaker give you drive, turret control and synchronized sound effects straight from the box.

Standard modelling tools such as cutters, files, hobby glue, and small screwdrivers are required. A pin vice and fine brushes help with detailed work on smaller parts.
There is scope for upgrades like metal track links or upgraded motors, but check dimensions and compatibility before purchasing aftermarket parts to ensure a proper fit.
The included control unit handles essential drive and turret functions and is user friendly, but some RC experience helps when tuning throttle response and steering characteristics.
With normal use on suitable surfaces, the suspension and drivetrain are robust; however, rough treatment or very abrasive terrain can accelerate wear on tracks and small components.
Keep electronic modules dry and clean, check connectors regularly, and avoid heavy impacts to the speaker. Periodic checks of wiring and secure mounts will prolong reliable operation.
