Model Kit

Vintage Series

20mm Scale

Brand new and unbuilt.

This kit includes parts for making a Churchill Mk VII Infantry Support Tank. The kit has104 pieces and builds into a model 94mm x 28mm.

The Churchill first appeared on the beaches of Dieppe in 1942 and despite going on to be a much used and much converted vehicle, the Mk I suffered from some problems not least of which was its weight and slow speed. By the Mk III the 2 pounder had been replaced with a 6 pounder and subsequently the US 75mm  M3 gun was fitted to the Mk IV (NA75) in the field in North Africa and the Mk VII on the production lines.  In addition to the 75mm gun, the MK VII had thicker internal armour, a new cast turret with commanders cupola, and improved suspension.

The Mk VII was the main variant of Churchill to serve in North West Europe between 1944 and 1945 as well as post WWII. Despite being initially seen as a joke by the Germans at Dieppe, the Churchill in its many guises proved to be a very successful tank for the British.

This is a superb kit which is the ideal buy for the wargamer or the modeller.
