Trumpeter 07248 Swedish STRV.103 B Scale Model Kit

The Swedish STRV.103 B, commonly called the "S-Tank", represents an unconventional Cold War design first fielded in the 1960s. Built without a turret, it was optimized as a tank destroyer. The STRV.103 B production run from 1970 to 1984 saw REMO upgrades that added a laser rangefinder, an updated diesel powerplant, and other defensive improvements.

Cold War Field Design Reduced to Scale

This Trumpeter kit reproduces the STRV.103 B silhouette and historical role so modellers can study its engineering and tactics. With roughly 300 vehicles originally in service, the model highlights why the S-Tank was respected for its accuracy and versatility compared to peers like the M60A1E3.

Build Complexity and Display Use

At 1:72 scale the kit balances detail and manageability for both experienced builders and newcomers. The moulded grey plastic includes 63 parts that form a faithful miniature of the vehicle. Completed dimensions are 120.7mm long, 48.5mm wide and 31.6mm high, making it a neat display piece for a shelf or diorama.

This kit is approachable for beginners who have some patience, while offering enough precision to satisfy experienced scale builders.
Flat acrylics in olive green and earth tones match the period Swedish finish; use a fine brush or airbrush for even coverage before applying decals.
Basic weathering and metal detail sets improve realism, but the kit builds well straight from the box for a clean display model.
