Trumpeter 07230 Soviet KV-1S Ehkranami: Accurate 1:72 Reproduction of Bolt-On Armour

The Trumpeter 07230 Soviet KV-1S Ehkranami reproduces the wartime adaptation that added bolt-on plates to the turret, increasing protection to about 75mm. This 1:72 model offers a compact yet faithful representation of that field modification for hobbyists who study period equipment.

Why this variant matters to modellers

The KV-1S Ehkranami shows how crews adapted existing tanks to meet battlefield threats, and the model highlights those changes in scale. Its smaller footprint makes it practical for multi-piece displays while still keeping the turret armour and silhouette distinct.

Assembly experience and final appearance

Containing 106 plastic parts on seven sprues, the kit provides a focused build with fine detail on the bolt-on plates and turret fittings. No metal or resin components are included, but the injection-moulded parts deliver crisp edges and accurate surface detail once painted and weathered.
