1/35 Scale Carro Armato M14/40 - WWII Italian Tank Model

The Carro Armato M14/40 was an important Italian medium tank in WWII, notably active in desert operations. Its riveted construction and leaf spring suspension reflect period engineering, while the main 47mm gun and the 125 hp diesel V8 offered the performance common to the era, with top speeds near 30 km/h.

Why This Kit Appeals to Modellers

This Tamiya 1/35 kit reproduces the M14/40s external features faithfully. It includes a metal gun barrel and photo-etched components that boost authenticity, plus a detailed track set and rivet work that will satisfy modellers who enjoy careful painting and weathering.
