Description

Description

This is an injection-plastic military vehicle model kit.

The Landkreuzer P. 1000 Ratte (lit.: Land Cruiser P. 1000 “Rat”) was a design for a super-heavy tank for use by Nazi Germany during World War II. It was designed in 1942 by Krupp with the approval of Adolf Hitler, but the project was canceled by Albert Speer in early 1943 and no tank was ever completed. At 1,000 metric tons, the P-1000 would have been over five times as heavy as the Panzer VIII Maus, the heaviest tank ever built.

This kit consists of parts molded in light and dark brown plastic,. Features rotating turret, photo-etched parts, decals for five types of markings, and a movable gun barrel.
