1/35 M31 US Tank Recovery Vehicle - Takom
Takom 1/35 M31 US Tank Recovery Vehicle is a plastic kit of the American recovery vehicle based on the M3 Lee. It includes photo-etched parts, a rope and decals. The kit does not include the paints or glues required for assembly.
The M31 was the first standardised tank recovery vehicle of the US Army. It was converted from the M3 medium tank: the turret carried a crane in place of the 37 mm gun, the sponson 75 mm gun gave way to a door with a dummy barrel, and a winch was installed in the fighting compartment. The vehicles served from 1943, among other places in North Africa.
The Takom kit in 1/35 scale contains plastic sprues, photo-etched parts, a rope and a decal sheet. The marking options include a US Army vehicle from the fighting at El Guettar in Tunisia in 1943.
The turret crane and recovery equipment offer a subject away from ordinary tanks, also suited to a diorama showing the recovery of damaged vehicles. The kit does not include the paints or glues required for assembly.
