This unique model set offers excellent reproduction of details of the historical vehicle and is a true treat for WWII military enthusiasts and collectors of Soviet armored vehicles.

Historical Background and Use

The SMK tank was designed in the Soviet Union at the end of the 1930s as a potential successor to the T-35 heavy tank series. Its first and only prototype version was built in 1939. The SMK was a twin-turret, heavily armored giant intended for breaking through strongly fortified enemy positions. The tank took part in combat during the Winter War (1939–1940) against Finland, but was not sent into serial production due to mobility problems and excessive size. Ultimately, its design solutions contributed to the development of the famous KV-1.
