T-62 Mod.1960 (Iraq modification), 1/35 - Trumpeter 01547

The T-62 Mod.1960 (Iraq modification) Trumpeter 01547 is a plastic model kit to assemble at 1/35, depicting a T-62 combat tank in a configuration intended for Iraqi forces. This reference reproduces a Soviet armoured vehicle from the T-62 family, adapted here with the specific parts included in the kit’s proposed version.

The T-62 is a Soviet main battle tank that entered service in the early 1960s. It belongs to the Cold War armoured vehicle generation and is particularly recognizable by its 115 mm smoothbore gun. Exported to several countries, it underwent many evolutions and local adaptations throughout its operational service life.

At 1/35 scale, the assembled model measures approximately 286 mm long and 95 mm wide. The box includes over 510 parts, spread across 19 sprues, as well as detailing elements in photo-etch, a turned metal barrel, a copper cable, separate track links, a decal sheet, and an illustrated assembly guide.

The presence of numerous small parts and tracks to be assembled separately allows for a finely detailed representation of the running gear and exterior details. Careful preparation of the parts, proper gluing for the materials used, then applying a primer will make painting easier. Decals can be applied onto a smooth and glossy surface before applying the desired matt or satin finish.

This T-62 tank model kit by Trumpeter is a detailed base for a modern armoured project at 1/35, with work possible on painting, wear effects, dusting layers, and weathering depending on the presentation mood you choose.
