Tamiya 56604 Brings the Centurion Mk.III to Scale

The Tamiya 56604 recreates the historic Centurion Mk.III in a detailed 1/25 scale R/C kit. Recognised for its widespread service, this model delivers both a faithful silhouette and an engaging kit build that appeals to scale enthusiasts.

Drive Train and Handling

This model uses two Type 130 motors housed in an assembly-style twin gearbox mounted at the hull rear. The MC-07 control unit governs drive and steering, enabling controlled acceleration and accurate turns. A Horstmann suspension setup with metal coil springs reproduces how the real vehicle negotiates rough ground.

Fittings, Markings and Extra Parts

Practical touches include pre-assembled tracks and four different decal options to suit various historical liveries. Certain export kits also include additional components for turret rotation to enhance operational authenticity.

A Kit for Dedicated Builders

Whether you are focused on operational detail or display realism, this kit offers a rewarding build that highlights the engineering behind the Centurion while producing a robust model for running and display.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/25
  • Length: 385mm
  • Width: 138mm
  • Control Unit: Dedicated R/C control unit included
  • Motors: 2 running motors included
  • Additional Features: Turret rotation parts available in export versions

The Tamiya 56604 Centurion Mk.III suits builders who value scale accuracy and mechanical authenticity, making it a standout project for modellers and collectors.

Fit 4x AA/R6 batteries for the model control unit and use a single 6F22/006P 9V cell in the transmitter as specified by the kit.
The tracks arrive pre-assembled to make setup quicker, though final fitting and tensioning will be needed during build.
Use primer on plastic parts, then thin acrylic or enamel paints in historically accurate colours; decals included allow for period-specific finishes.
