The Tamiya British Chieftain Mk 5 Tank Plastic Model Kit depicts the final production Mk 5 variant introduced in 1970. This 1/35 scale military model features the Chieftain’s characteristic oversized 120 mm main gun, carefully rendered suspension, armor panels, and insulation shields around the cannon. Three tank soldiers are also included to enhance the completed display.
Created for model builders who enjoy assembling and painting military miniatures, the kit has movable hatches and a removable side skirt that reveals additional design detail. Adhesive, modeling tools, and paint are required for assembly and are sold separately. Handle parts carefully during construction and display to help avoid damage.
