The Trumpeter 07231 kit captures a precise miniature of the 1942 Russian KV-1 fitted with the heavy cast turret. The text reflects the tank's dense armor profile, which reached up to 95 mm in places, and notes the fitted ZIS-5 76.2 mm main gun that defined its battlefield role.
The KV-1 became well known during World War II for combining heavy protection with effective firepower. The 1942 cast turret variant represented a shift toward stronger defensive profiles, and this kit aims to replicate that detail for historians and diorama builders.
This Trumpeter 07231 assembly contains 94 plastic parts arranged across seven sprues for a focused build session. At 1:72 scale the finished model measures 97mm long, 46.3mm wide and 39mm tall, making it a tidy display piece or a realistic element for small-scale battlefield scenes.
