Authentic Tamiya 35375 1/35 KV-2 Heavy Tank for Scale Modellers

The Tamiya 35375 kit presents a faithful 1/35 scale replica of the Soviet KV-2 heavy tank, emphasising the turret's imposing profile and textured casting. It is designed for modellers seeking accurate surface detail and a rewarding assembly process.

KV-2 in Historical Context

Commissioned into service in December 1939, the KV-2 adapted the KV-1 chassis to mount a large 152mm howitzer. Although around two hundred were produced, the KV-2 left a strong impression during the opening campaigns of World War II because of its heavy armament and robust construction.

Build Details and Customisation

Tamiya's kit captures fine turret castings and weld detail with precision moulding. The sprues allow for multiple configuration choices, including several hatch positions and realistic surface features that enhance authenticity.

How It Sits in a Collection

Completed, the model delivers strong visual impact thanks to correct proportions and textured surfaces. It makes a persuasive addition to any collection of WWII armour and pairs well with other Soviet-era kits.

Expect moderate complexity: parts are precise but require careful trimming and alignment. Good tools and patience will help achieve a clean result.
The kit is highly detailed out of the box, though some modellers add photo-etched parts or metal barrels if they want additional finesse.
Fortified positions, roadside ambushes or repair-yard vignettes are all appropriate. The option to pose hatches and use the included crew parts helps create dynamic displays.
