1/72 BTR-80 APC
Trumpeter 1/72 BTR-80 APC is a plastic kit of the Soviet and Russian 8 × 8 wheeled armoured personnel carrier. It has 67 parts. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The BTR-80 is an 8 × 8 wheeled armoured personnel carrier that succeeded the earlier BTR-70 and BTR-60. Instead of the twin petrol engines of its predecessors it received a single turbocharged V8 diesel, improving both performance and reliability. It entered Soviet Army service in the 1980s and is still used by the Russian Army and many other countries today.
According to the box the Trumpeter kit in 1/72 scale contains 67 parts. The finished model is 105 mm long, 40 mm wide and 32 mm high, making it a good fit for a small-scale armour collection as well as for wargaming scenes and dioramas.
The green finish with a red star on the turret looks authentic; light weathering and dust on the wheels emphasise the shape of the hull. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
