Detailed look at the Trumpeter 05526 1/35 Italian PUMA 6x6 wheeled AFV

The Trumpeter 1/35 scale Italian PUMA 6x6 Wheeled Armored Fighting Vehicle model kit reproduces the multi role vehicle used by the Italian Army with close attention to form and proportion. Praised for mobility and modular use in the field, the PUMA 6x6 is shown here in scale with accurate body lines and stowage points, making it a solid choice for collectors and diorama builders.

Operational background and design

The PUMA 6x6 is a modern wheeled AFV engineered to work across varied terrain with protective plating and integrated communications. This kit reflects those defining traits so modellers can understand the vehicle's layout and purpose while assembling realistic features like the hull and turret geometry.

Build considerations for modellers

This kit is aimed at modellers comfortable with precise assembly and careful painting. Parts include the chassis, suspension components and turret assemblies that require patience and good seam work to achieve a clean, scale look once painted and weathered.

Presentation and display tips

Finished, the PUMA 6x6 makes a convincing centrepiece in a military collection or a tactical diorama. Its 1/35 scale works well alongside contemporary NATO vehicles and enhances group displays with its authentic proportions and detailing.
