Tamiya 53447 RC 1/16 Scale Tank LED Battle System OP-447 - LED Battle Module for Tank Skirmishes  [53447]

Bring realistic combat to the field with Tamiya 53447

The Tamiya 53447 RC 1/16 Tank LED Battle System OP-447 is built to add immersive combat effects to your 1/16 scale tank battles. Using infrared detection alongside authentic sound cues, the system simulates hits and engine damage without harming your model.

Core components that recreate combat

This kit pairs the GFS (Gun Fire Simulator) Unit with an Infrared LED Unit so tanks can both emit and register IR beams. The setup supports hit feedback, engine trouble sounds and movement limits to create varied battlefield conditions. The unit lists a maximum firing distance of 30 meters for long-range engagements.

Tune the fight to your group

Selectable light, medium and heavy tank classes let you shape how resilient each vehicle is. You can set how many hits a tank can take and adjust firing intervals to keep matches balanced. Remember the Battle System works when installed on tanks fitted with a Multifunction Unit and is most fun with two or more equipped vehicles.

How hits feel on the model

When struck, the system produces a damage blast sound and a physical blast reaction, while the GFS unit flashes and engine sound and speed drop to reflect damage. Close range hits under about 5 meters register from most angles; beyond that distance a perpendicular hit is required to register.
