ICM 72531 - Scale Replica of the BTR-152V

The ICM 72531 kit models the BTR-152V, a Soviet armoured personnel carrier known for its practical design. The original served across varied terrain and this 1/72 representation focuses on capturing the vehicle silhouette and key external fittings. Model builders can use the kit to study and present a slice of Cold War vehicle engineering.

Detailing That Rewards Patience

Component moulding highlights the BTR-152V's structural features and panel lines. Wheels, hull panels and small fittings are all rendered to help builders convey scale realism. Careful assembly and finishing will enhance the kit's authentic look.

What to Expect During Build

This kit sits at a moderate skill level. Parts are designed to align neatly but may still need trimming and test-fitting. Follow the instructions and plan painting stages to avoid handling marks and to achieve crisp markings.
