British Universal Carrier Mk.II - Tamiya 1/35 Scale Model

In 1934 Vickers-Armstrong Ltd built a small Machine Gun Carrier known as the V-A D50 as a private venture. The V-A D50 entered service in 1936 as the Machine Gun Carrier Mkl; armed with a .303 Vickers water-cooled machinegun. In 1938, the Bren Carrier Mk.I replaced the Machine Gun Carrier Mk.I in production. This was a far superior design with a more powerful 85bhp Ford V-8 engine.
This precision modelling kit from the folks at Tamiya inc pays homage to this iconic military vehicle with wonderfully engineered pieces designed to faithfully replicate the universal character at 1:35th scale.
