Tamiya 35249 - 1/35 British Universal Carrier Mk.II Recon Diorama Kit  [35249]

Universal Carrier Mk.II - compact recon vehicle in scale

The Universal Carrier Mk.II, brought into service in 1942, served as a versatile tracked vehicle across WWII. Tamiya's 1/35 model captures its compact profile and practical design, aimed at builders who value realistic battlefield modelling.

Where it served and what it did

Used from the deserts of North Africa to fighting in Europe, the Mk.II carried out reconnaissance, liaison and light transport tasks. The kit mirrors the carrier's functional layout and its role ferrying crew and equipment over difficult ground.
