Italeri 6543 - 1/35 Carro Armato M14/41 I Serie - Detailed WWII Tank Kit with Italian Infantry  [IT-6543S]

Overview of the Italeri 6543 - 1/35 Carro Armato M14/41 I Serie kit

This Italeri 1/35 representation of the Carro Armato M14/41 I Serie recreates a key Italian WWII tank with careful attention to surface detail and hull features. The kit reflects the vehicle used by the Regio Esercito armored units between 1941 and 1943, showing characteristic elements like the radiator grilles and the Fiat SPA diesel layout.

Background and modelling interest

Developed from the M13/40 chassis, the M14/41 brought a stronger engine while keeping the same main armament. It saw extensive service in North Africa, making this subject appealing to modellers focused on desert campaigns and period dioramas. The kit is aimed at hobbyists who appreciate historically faithful kits with assembly complexity.

Included kit highlights

The Italeri set adds finely moulded Italian infantry figures to complement the vehicle, improving display possibilities. With numerous small parts and realistic fittings, the build is rewarding for modellers comfortable with intermediate to advanced assembly and painting techniques.
