Italeri 1/35 T-34 85 Korean War Model Kit

The T-34/85 spearheaded the North Korean invasion of South Korea in June 1950, and its 85mm gun initially proved devastating against unprepared UN forces. These Soviet-supplied tanks dominated the early war until American M26 Pershings and M4A3E8 Shermans arrived to counter them. The Korean War T-34/85s were largely 1945-production vehicles with wartime-finish casting marks. Italeri's 1/35 kit represents the Korean War configuration with appropriate markings for NKPA armored units.
