Featuring slide molding technology for sharp detail and easy assembly, it includes movable parts and three action-posed figures, making it an ideal collectible for modelers seeking both authenticity and customization. ## Description This model kit recreates the M551 Sheridan Armored Reconnaissance/Airborne Assault Vehicle (AR/AAV). The M551 was designed as airdrop capable armor with wading capabilities, a key concept as the U. S. took on the role of global policeman post WWII. With an aluminum hull and rolled steel turret, it weighed just 15 tons, but had impressive firepower in the shape of the M81 152mm gun/launcher, which could fire standard rounds and MGM-51 Shillelagh missiles. The M551 was in service with active units from 1968 to 1996, and saw action in the jungles of Vietnam. ??Requires paint and assembly. Review: Taniya is the best - Tamiya models are the best. There are others that are a bit more detailed, and there are others that are less detailed. These hit the sweet spot in the middle. They have good detail and are not overly complex to assemble. I built this model 50 years ago and now I will build it again. Review: This kit is worth the price - I have built many Tamiya kits over the years. I have been model making on and off for over 50 years Particularly military dioramas WW2 Vietnam and Iraq. My unit had Sheridans. The tamiya kit is an excellent example of the Vietnam era AARV, not a tank. It is an easy kit to assemble and with your imagination, some scrap plastic,balsa wood you can create a very realistic scene. The kit also comes with 3 figures which is a real plus. There are no photo etched parts so no super glue needed. It is a very basic kit compared to many others on the market today, but a fun part of modeling is using your own imagination. I highly recommend this kit for modelers of all levels. ## Features - 1/35 scale plastic model assembly kit.
