Scale Reproduction of a Soviet Amphibious Light Tank

The PT-76 served as a light amphibious platform armed with a 76mm gun and operated by a three-man crew, designed for riverine and reconnaissance roles. Its lightweight protection was offset by the ability to traverse water, a key tactical advantage in many Cold War operations.

Kit Details for Model Makers
