Iraqi Tank T-55 "Enigma" 1:35 Tamiya 35324

Plastic military model kit: Iraqi Tank T-55 "Enigma" 1:35 Tamiya 35324

A plastic model kit depicting the Iraqi T-55 "Enigma" tank, a unique modification of the Soviet design used by the Iraqi army during the 1991 Gulf War. The 1:35 scale model from the renowned Tamiya company faithfully captures the characteristic silhouette of the vehicle equipped with massive additional armor packages.

The T-55 Enigma stood out from standard T-54/55 units due to the composite armor blocks mounted on the turret and hull, which were intended to increase crew survivability against modern anti-tank missiles. Although the name "Enigma" was given by coalition forces after capturing the first examples, the vehicle itself became a symbol of Iraqi attempts to modernize older armored equipment.

• Precise reproduction of the additional armor blocks on the turret and hull.
• Detailed reproduction of the turret casting texture and engine covers specific to the Iraqi versions.
• Construction of the racks for the additional armor made with attention to detail, giving the model a three-dimensional look.
• Tracks in the form of flexible strips, facilitating assembly while maintaining realism.
• The set includes one figure of an Iraqi tanker in a realistic pose.

• Scale: 1:35
• Total length: 259 mm
• Total width: 109 mm
