Trumpeter 1/35 B1 Centauro AFV 01564 - Detailed Builder Kit

The Trumpeter 1/35 B1 Centauro AFV Early Version (2nd Series) with Upgrade Armour reproduces the distinctive silhouette and armor upgrades of the real machine. It provides well-defined panel lines and parts that reflect the vehicle's field upgrades, ideal for modellers who enjoy historical accuracy.

Design Background and Battlefield Use

Created as a response to the need for a rapid-fire, mobile anti-armour asset, the B1 Centauro combines an eight-wheel running gear with a high-velocity gun. The early series with upgraded armour improved protection for reconnaissance and fire-support tasks, and the kit captures those changes in scale form.

Build Experience and Display Quality

Expect a hands-on modelling experience with fine components that reward patience and attention. When built and painted with weathering, the model becomes a convincing display subject for cabinets or dioramas.
