The Hobby Boss 1/35 KrAZ-260B with its 5P85TE TEL represents a specialised transport used to carry and position S-300 missile components. The kit captures the utilitarian lines and functional layout of the original tractor and transport launcher.
Understanding the KrAZ-260B's role helps model makers appreciate support and logistics in military operations. The S-300 system relied on robust vehicle platforms to move and emplace launch assemblies efficiently.
The moulded details reward careful assembly. Take time with fit checks and light sanding, and plan painting in subassemblies to keep detail crisp. Decals or paint masks can improve markings and stencils.
On completion the model works well on a display base or within a larger diorama. Its distinctive silhouette makes it an interesting focal point for transport-focused scenes.
