Description

Description

This is an injection-plastic military vehicle model kit.

The Hotchkiss H-35 is a tank developed and submitted by Hotchkiss to a competition to select a new tank to succeed the French Army’s Renault FT. The hull was constructed by combining cast parts. The Renault R-35 was adopted for the infantry unit, and the Hotchkiss was deployed to cavalry units as H-35. Three of this tank were purchased for testing in Poland, and were used in the same unit as the Renault R-35 in the 1939 campaign.

This late version of the Hotchkiss H-35 features differences in the turret inspection device, the intake port at the front of the vehicle, the engine room grille, and the guide wheels. A book of photos of the actual vehicle are included; the text is in Polish, but the photos are a valuable reference for any tank fan! Order yours today!
