Product Description
- The masterpiece kit that Dorami carries on, now once again
About the actual car
The King Tiger heavy tank, equipped with the highly powerful 88mm gun as its main armament, was completed in 1943 during World War II and entered service in 1944. It featured the longer-barreled 71-caliber 88mm KwK 43 tank gun compared to the Tiger I. In addition, its turret frontal armor reached 180mm and its hull armor reached a maximum of 150mm, making it virtually impervious to any Allied anti-tank gun. Although fewer than 500 King Tigers were produced by Henschel by the end of the war, they demonstrated overwhelming power against the Allied forces. The King Tiger's tracks came in three types: a 600mm wide type used for transport and three types of 800mm wide tracks used for normal operation. The Kgs 73/800/152 single-link battle tracks were adopted in the final stages of production and were used in combination with 18-tooth sprocket wheels.
About the model
This is a new kit from the Dorami brand, based on a masterpiece previously released by Dragon.
This is a 1/35 scale plastic model assembly kit that recreates the majestic appearance of the King Tiger tank in the Ardennes during World War II. In particular, it features a vehicle from the German Wehrmacht's 506th Heavy Tank Battalion, which received and equipped the King Tiger in August 1944 and participated in the Battle of the Ardennes in 1944. The hull, turret, and other parts are sharply finished. The tracks, a characteristic feature of this kit, accurately reproduce the shape of the Kgs73/800/152 track links. In addition, the drive sprocket wheel is also modeled with an 18-tooth drive sprocket. Furthermore, various parts of the hull have been updated to more accurately reproduce the vehicle that saw action in the Ardennes. Many photo-etched parts are also included to enhance the detail.
