Hasegawa MT35 M1E1 Abrams (1/72) – plastic scale model tank kit

The Hasegawa MT35 M1E1 Abrams model in 1:72 scale is a precisely crafted plastic assembly kit representing one of the world’s most modern and recognizable battle tanks. The American M1A1 Abrams tank entered service with the United States Army in the 1980s and remains the main armored force of the US Army and several other NATO member states today. This model replicates the specific M1E1 version (prototype and early production batch of the M1A1), characterized by the use of a new 120 mm smoothbore gun and upgraded composite armor.

This weapon was extensively used during Operation Desert Storm in 1991 during the First Gulf War, where it proved its worth in harsh desert conditions, demonstrating technological superiority over Soviet-designed vehicles used by Iraqi forces. The M1E1/M1A1 tank was also adopted by the US Marine Corps, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Australia. The model represents the Cold War and modern era.
