1/35 Military Miniatures No.326

U.S. Main Battle Tank M1A2 SEP Abrams Tusk II

Item No：35326

【 Made for the Streets 】 During the Iraq War of 2003 and the subsequent occupation, the M1 Abrams served as the main tank of the US military. While the M1A2 SEP was a highly modernized version including electronics improvements and so on, the US military found that it faced a new threat during the occupation from 2004 onwards, namely in close-quarters urban situations with weapons such as mines and hand-held weapons. Tank Urban Survival Kits (TUSK) were developed to counter such threats, and the original TUSK I added block-shaped reactive armor to the tank sides as well as an anti-mine underplate, additional M2 heavy machine gun above the main gun, and shields for the loader. The TUSK II upgrade further added shields for the commander and the distinctive tile-shaped reactive armor, although these were not fitted to all M1A2 SEPs.

【 About the Model 】 This is a 1/35 scale assembly kit model of the M1A2 SEP Abrams tank with the TUSK II urban survival kit. ★Length: 280mm, Width: 127mm. ★The model replicates the tank's imposing form including unique tile-shaped reactive armor, commander and loader shields and M2 machine gun on the main gun. ★Model can be made to feature defensively-upgraded TUSK II or TUSK I systems. ★Complex reactive armor is constructed with few parts and little fuss. ★Includes commander and loader figures (total 2). ★Comes with TUSK I and 2 types of TUSK II markings.
