Tamiya RC 1/35 Japan Ground Self Defense Force Type 10 Tank (w/Control Unit)

Command Japan's fourth-generation main battle tank with the Tamiya Type 10 Tank, a compact 1/35 scale kit with a dedicated included transmitter. Please note this is an unassembled kit requiring construction, so builders should expect to assemble the hull, turret, and gearbox before driving. Officially announced in 2010 and delivered to units starting in 2012, the real Type 10 serves the Japan Ground Self Defense Force with a domestically developed 120mm smoothbore main gun, an automatic targeting system, and removable modular armor that allows for easier transport by trailer.

Two mini motors and gears installed in the hull rear are controlled by the included 2.4GHz R/C system, using a dedicated transmitter and MC-07 receiver/motor control unit for a range of speeds, turning circles, and pivots. The right control stick handles turret rotation and gun elevation, while realistic belt-type tracks and detailed side skirt texture make for a smooth assembly job and an authentic finished look, with three marking options included.
