Trumpeter 01528 1/35 BMP-3 Scale Modelling Kit  [TP01528]

BMP-3 IFV in 1:35 Scale by Trumpeter 01528

The BMP-3 represents an evolution in IFV design and this 1:35 kit from Trumpeter captures its distinctive features. The model shows the unusual rear-right engine placement and internal troop seating arrangement that differentiate the BMP-3 from earlier models.

Service Record and Role

Deployed from the late 1980s onward, the BMP-3 has seen export to nations such as the United Arab Emirates, Cyprus, Kuwait, and South Korea. This kit mirrors those operational traits, including higher ground clearance and rear access points for fast troop deployment.

What Builders Can Expect

With over 750 pieces, photo-etched components, and transparent parts for realistic vision blocks, Trumpeter's kit is rich in detail. The hull and turret use advanced multi-slide molding, and the assembly of 192 individual track links offers an authentic but demanding task for experienced builders.
