This kit updates the popular British Matilda (Item 35300) with parts to recreate a Soviet-spec Matilda.

The tank itself was a durable, heavy design with 2-pounder gun that was well-suited to the slower infantry tank role in British armor doctrine.

Eventually, the Matilda was replaced by the Valentine.

Like the Valentine, it was supplied to Soviet forces under a lend-lease scheme.

Around 1,000 were provided; they were generally given new tracks and simplified suspension with bogie skids, re-designed side skirts, and other modifications.

New Parts Soviet-design assembly track parts Suspension bogie skid parts Solid (no slits) hull front locker hatches 2 Red Army torso figures 2 Red Army marking options Length: 174mm.

The form of the Matilda is richly reproduced based on a detailed study of the actual tank.

The turret, gun mantlet, and front hull feature a realistic cast metal texture.

Link type assembly parts recreate the tracks (69 links per side).

Parts are included to recreate the bogie skids in the suspension, while side skirts are newly re-designed to accurately reflect those on Red Army Matildas.

Hull front locker hatches are the slit-less type.

Comes with 2 Red Army torso figures (driver, commander), and 2 Red Army Matilda marking options.
