Italeri 7081 - Scale 1/72 T-55A Main Battle Tank

The Italeri 7081 1/72 T-55A captures the essence of a classic Cold War MBT in a small footprint. Known for its ubiquitous service life and simple, robust construction, the T-55A makes a rewarding subject for scale enthusiasts. This kit offers a way to study its form while producing a tidy, museum-style model.

Accuracy and Assembly

Parts are moulded to represent the T-55A's main features, including its domed turret and compact hull. The 1/72 scale keeps the build time reasonable while providing enough definition for panel lines and fittings, ideal for modellers who like to add subtle paintwork and detailing.

Perfect for Shelves and Dioramas

Once complete, the model works well on a display plinth or within a vignette. Its scale lets you combine several vehicles in a small diorama without losing individual detail, making it useful for theme collections or historical layouts.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Not included
It works for newcomers who have used glue before. The smaller parts need careful handling, so a first kit should be tackled at a relaxed pace.
The kit includes the basic fittings, but you can add small aftermarket items like metal barrels or photo-etch for extra realism if you prefer finer detail.
Small round brushes size 0 to 2 and a selection of acrylic model paints cover most tasks. A thin primer coat helps the paint sit smoothly on the plastic surfaces.
