Compact Trumpeter M113A3 1:72 plastic model

This 1:72 plastic model represents the US M113A3 tracked armored personnel carrier in a compact format intended for display and reference in small-scale armour collections.

The M113 lineage began in the late 1950s and saw broad service with US and allied formations. The A3 update indicates later field modifications and factory improvements that enhanced drivetrain reliability, suspension, and crew protection relative to earlier versions.

The kit comprises 48 plastic components on six sprues and assembles to a hull roughly 65 mm long. Surface detail emphasises hull contours and main fittings; the package contains no decals, photo-etched sheets, resin castings, or metal upgrades. Model paints, adhesive, and basic finishing tools are required to complete the assembly.

Dear Sir/ MAdam, Recieve your package in good order and condition. I might palce another order in a couple of months. Thank you.
Standard polystyrene cement or liquid solvent adhesives are suitable; use fine files and a modelling knife for sprue cleanup and fit adjustments.
Parts are moulded for small-scale kits and require careful trimming and test-fitting to achieve clean joins and correct alignment.
Thin coats and pre-shading techniques work well at 1:72; use fine brushes or an airbrush for even coverage on the small hull surfaces.
The kit contains 48 parts spread across six sprues.
Since decals are not included, you can source aftermarket decal sheets or paint markings freehand for unit-specific insignia.
