Tamiya 35360 1/35 US Light Tank M3 Stuart Late Production Scale Kit  [35360]

Tamiya 35360 1/35 M3 Stuart Late Production Detail Kit

The Tamiya 1/35 scale M3 Stuart kit brings enhanced detailing to a classic light tank subject, aimed at hobbyists who value historical accuracy and a satisfying build. The M3 Stuart earned a reputation for agility and reliability, serving with U.S. units and in Soviet hands during World War II.

Late Production History and Key Features

Introduced from March 1943, the late production M3 Stuart adopted a rounded turret profile and omitted the cupola for improved field handling. The model reflects those changes and shows the 37mm main gun plus the secondary 7.62mm machine guns that characterised the type. Tamiya's tooling reproduces these aspects so modellers can capture the variant accurately.

Build Notes and Finish Tips

This kit rewards careful assembly with finely detailed parts and realistic proportions. It suits experienced modelers and committed hobbyists who want a museum-quality subject for display or a diorama. Attention to the turret fittings and armament will lift the finished model.
