T90 |
||||
|
The T90 is the
Russian army's current Main Battle Tank. It is extremely fast and highly
manoeuvrable. If you see film of one operating in the field, you will be
amazed. Essentially, it is an up-armoured T72 with sophisticated infrared vision
and a powerful 120mm gun with all the latest gun stabilisation controls.
Built on a scale for 5 foot Russians, you get into one at your peril! I well
remember an incident during the 2002 "War & Peace Show" when an
M60 and a Chieftain were running around the arena. In came a T72 that
proceeded to lap in half the time - very impressive. The T90 has a very low
silhouette, making it difficult for opponents to spot. The 1/8th scale model
has the same characteristics as the real tank, being fast and highly
manoeuvrable. However, watch out for that long gun. Being low and with an
extensive overhang, some fast turret turning may be needed to prevent it
stabbing into the ground!
1/8 scale T90 38” long by 19” wide
by 14” tall, up to 35kgs. Prices from £2200. Email sales@mark-1-tank.co.uk for
prices with options, detail level and 12v or 24v power. . |
