Accurate 1/35 M551 Sheridan Light Armoured Vehicle

The Tamiya 89541 reproduces the U.S. M551 Sheridan, first fielded in 1966 and notable for pairing light armour with the M81 152mm gun-launcher. Built to be air-portable, the Sheridan featured widely during the Vietnam conflict and subsequent operations where mobility was critical.

Designed as a display kit at 1/35 scale, this release focuses on static realism with molded belt-type tracks and a crew torso figure to complement display scenes. The new edition takes cues from the original 1971 motorized kit but is optimized for collectors and non-motor builds.

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly Type: Static display model
  • Included Features: Belt-type tracks, tank crew torso figure

What level of detail should I expect inside the hull?

Interior detail is minimal since this is a static display kit, but key hull shapes and engine deck contours are well represented for accurate exterior lines.

Are the tracks workable or fixed in place?

The kit provides belt-type track sections designed for a detailed static fit. They require careful assembly and fitting but are intended for display rather than running suspension.

Is this kit suitable for a historical diorama?

Yes, the included crew torso and authentic external details make it an excellent centrepiece for a small diorama depicting a field or maintenance scene.
