Modellismo Militare / Military - Infinite - Dragon - Ammo by Mig Jimenez

This highly detailed 1/72 plastic model kit, accurately portrays the “Operation Desert Storm” variant of the Bradley. The purpose of the Bradley Fighting Vehicle is to enable Infantry soldiers to accomplish their mission of closing in and destroying, or capturing the enemy. The M3A2 ODS fights as a member of the Combined Arms team with the Abrams Tank. Its four primary missions are to: ‧ Provide mobile protected transport of sufficient Infantry to the critical point on the battlefield. ‧ Provide fire to support dismount Infantry. ‧ Provide fire to suppress or destroy enemy IFV’s and light armor vehicles. ‧ Provide Anti-armor fires to destroy enemy armor. The 25mm chain gun, TOW missile launcher, and coax machinegun provide adequate firepower to support the Infantry while performing these missions. Per saperne di più

Features: Newly tooled VK.45.02(P)V Newly tooled upper hull w/details Set of on-vehicle tools come w/clamps Hooks added on front of hull Delicate turret reproduced Slide-molded lower hull w/bolt details Interlocking plates realistically rendered on both hull and turret Delicate engine deck reproduced Road wheels accurately reproduced Highly detailed sprocket wheels One-piece DS tracks Dragon previously released an impressive 1/72 scale kit of the VK.45.02(P)H prototype, which had the Krupp turret mounted well to the rear of the hull. Now Dragon is offering its partner, the VK.45.02(P)V, with the ‘V’ in the designation denoting Vorwarts. This alludes to the fact that the turret was mounted further forward on the hull (i.e. in front of rather than behind the engines) in a more conventional manner than occurred with the H type. One example was to see combat. The one-piece upper hull on this kit is a brand new molding suitable for this variant. The unique deck layout depicts the accurate engine deck details. The hull also carries the Porsche turret later assigned to the Tiger II, and there are also easy-to-assemble DS tracks. The ‘V’ version of this Porsche prototype allows modelers to move forward onto something new and special! Per saperne di più

The Jagdpanzer borrowed the basic hull, suspension and drive train of the Panzer IV, from which it was derived. This low-slung tank hunter acquired a sloping superstructure with a 7.5cm PaK39 L/48 gun, replacing the turret of the standard Panzer IV. A 1/72 scale Jagdpanzer Late Version has previously appeared in Dragon Models’ catalog, but the early L/48 model has major differences that make it unique. This kit sports a number of new parts especially for this early version including the upper and lower hull, and of course, the shorter gun. The L/48 vehicle was introduced into service from March 1944, but now Dragon Models has made it available again, ready for modelers at the beginning of 2006! Special Features - New upper hull and lower hull NEW - New accurate mantlet NEW - One-piece slide-molded barrel with muzzle brake - Slide-molded new muffler - New cleaning rods NEW - New add-on armor plates NEW - Bonus photo-etched add-on armor plates - Cartograf decal offers wide range markings - On-vehicle tools with crisp details - Engine deck and fenders with accurate details - Detailed tracks manufactured in DS - One-piece return rollers are beautifully made and convenient to assemble, thanks to slide mold technology. - Road wheel hubs are separate pieces, allowing unparalleled crispness of detail Per saperne di più

Features: Authentic Churchill Mk.IV rendered w/full detail Slide-molded turret for Churchill Mk.IV Well-defined hatches can be assembled open/closed 75mm hun barrel can be adjusted at two different angles Bolts and rivets delicately represented on hull bottom One piece slide-molded lower hull Inlet louvers molded w/detailed patter Intricate tools molded modeled on vehicle Sharply detailed one-piece fenders and hull-top Idler and sprockets wheels are authentic-looking and easy assembly Idler and sprockets wheels are authentic-looking and easy assembly One-piece boguies produced for produced for easy assembly One-piece DS tracks The Churchill infantry tank is a distinctive design with its extremely long chassis and wraparound tracks. Named after the British Minister of Defence, the Churchill tank was very well armored. The Mk.IV was the most numerous variant. As a field expedient, the Mk.IV was improved with an armament better than the original 6 pdr gun, and this was done by fitting the mantlet and 75mm gun (from Sherman tanks that could not be repaired) onto the Churchill's cast turret. The first NA 75 conversions were done in North Africa, where many Shermans had been disabled by mines. (Incidentally, the name 'NA 75' refers to 'North Africa' and the caliber of the gun.) The field conversion required cutting away the front of the original turret to fit the new mantlet. Approximately 200 NA 75 tanks were converted from March-June 1944, and they saw action in North Africa and Italy. A while ago, Dragon Armor Pro issued a 1/72 scale kit of the Churchill Mk.IV, but like the original, that model has now been converted into an NA 75! Dragon's kit features many new components such as the appropriate Sherman mantlet and gun barrel. The Churchill Mk.IV NA 75 is beautifully detailed, and it assembles quickly and easily into an accurate model thanks to time-saving elements like one-piece DS tracks and single-piece bogies. For modelers wishing to build up their British tank brigades, this item is invaluable as it represents a special variant that was widely used in combat. Per saperne di più

Named after the British Minister of Defence of the time, the Churchill tank was very well armored. It was produced in a series of versions that offered heavier armor and more powerful armament as the war progressed. The Mk.III, weighing in at 39,626kg, arrived on the scene in March 1942. It featured a 6-pounder gun in the all-welded turret, and the hull-mounted howitzer fitted in previous variants was deleted. Its baptism of fire was in the Second Battle of El Alamein in October 1942, in which six Mk.III tanks were involved. The Mk.III was also famously involved in the failed landing at Dieppe in northern France. Dragon previously issued a 1/72 scale kit of the Churchill Mk.IV, but is now following it up with a Mk.III version. To create this earlier mark, many new components such as a turret and auxiliary fuel tank have been newly tooled. The engine details are quite different too. The Churchill Mk.III is beautifully detailed, and it assembles quickly and easily into an accurate model thanks to time-saving elements like one-piece DS tracks and single-piece bogies. For modelers wishing to strengthen their British tank brigades, this is a must-have item, and it perfectly complements Dragon’s Sherman Mk.III, Sherman Firefly and Churchill Mk.IV kits already available.

Features: - Realistic Churchill Mk.IV new production - Cupola can be assembled open/closed - Hatches on turret can be assembled open/closed - Inlet louvre molded w/detailed pattern - Slide-molded turret for Churchill Mk.IV - Intricate tools molded on vehicle - Side fenders w/pattern detail on both surfaces - One-piece gun barrel w/detailed hollow muzzle brake - One-piece slide-molded lower hull - Bolts and rivets delicately represented on hull bottom - Idler and sprocket wheels are authentic and easy to assemble - One-piece DS track - One-piece bogies produced for easy assembly Dragon has a brand new plastic kit in its exciting collection, one that will have model fans excited. The new 1/72 scale item is a British tank – the famous Churchill. The Churchill, referred to officially as the Tank, Infantry, Mk IV (A22), was named after the British prime minister at the time of its design in WWII. The tank was heavily armored and it featured a long chassis with long track runs that enabled it to cross difficult terrain. The first Churchills were hastily churning off Vauxhall production lines in June 1941, within a year of the tank’s design in the aftermath of the humiliating Allied defeat in Europe. Dragon’s model portrays a Churchill Mk IV tank, a variant that featured a cast turret instead of the all-welded turret found on the visually similar Mk III. Its main armament was a QF 6 pounder gun. Weighing in at approximately 40 tonnes, the Churchill had a particularly slow top speed. The Mk IV was the most numerically common model of the Churchill, with 1,622 tanks produced. As the first Churchill kit from Dragon, the tank utilizes brand new moldings. Slide molds allow the upper hull and lower hull to each be made in one piece. This makes construction more straightforward and accurate. The suspension on the Churchill is complicated, but the kit designers have cleverly engineered the suspension system in a way that’s easy to assemble. The cast turret is made in one piece via multi-directional slide molds, and it perfectly captures the five-sided shape of the Mk IV turret. The muzzle of the 6 pounder gun is hollow thanks also to slide molding. The tracks are made of DS, adding to the appeal of a model that’s easy to assemble and one that builds into an authentic-looking Churchill Mk IV! Per saperne di più
