About product

T-55 AM-1 with workable tracks 1:35 (Rye Field Model)

Injection-molded plastic kit of a modernized Soviet medium tank in 1:35 scale from Rye Field Model. The model captures the T-55 AM-1 version with add-on armor on the turret and the glacis, and it offers workable (assembled, functioning) tracks as part of the package. Take the exact parts count and the markings from the instructions in the box.

The real subject

The T-55 was one of the most widespread medium tanks of the Cold War, built in enormous numbers and used all over the world. The AM modernization added passive add-on armor, an improved fire control system and a stronger engine, so that the aging design could hold up longer against newer opponents. The T-55 AM-1 version belongs to the later batches of this upgrade. T-55 tanks in various modernized forms remain in service with some armies to this day.

Building and painting tips

Build in sub-assemblies and finish the running gear before varnishing. Do not forget the rangefinder box above the gun barrel and the add-on armor, which set the AM version apart visually. Assemble the workable tracks according to the instructions and let them dry out before fitting, so that they stay flexible. Apply a primer before painting and spray with an airbrush. The add-on armor and the running gear will gratefully take washes into the recesses and pigments for mud and dust effects.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of Cold War equipment
  • Fans of T-55 tanks and their modernized forms
  • Modelers who will appreciate workable tracks
  • More experienced builders of detailed kits in 1:35 scale

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It is a modernization of the T-55 with passive add-on armor, a better fire control system and a stronger engine. The AM-1 is one of the later batches of this upgrade.

Yes, the package contains workable assembled tracks, which stay functional once built and sag nicely over the running gear.

The detailed mold and the tracks that have to be assembled make it rather a project for more experienced modelers, but the result is worth the work.
