About product

M113A1 (1:35, Italeri)

An injection-molded plastic kit of the American M113A1 tracked armored personnel carrier in 1:35 scale from Italeri. The model captures the classic version of this light carrier with its aluminum hull. The box usually contains link-and-length tracks and decals for several marking versions; check the exact contents against the manufacturer's part number for this item.

The real subject

The M113 appeared at the turn of the 1950s and 1960s as a light armored personnel carrier for taking a fully armed infantry squad close to the battlefield. Aluminum armor kept the weight down and gave it good mobility and the ability to swim. The vehicle first saw mass use in Vietnam, where the early versions carried a 12.7 mm machine gun. With more than eighty thousand built, the M113 became one of the most widespread armored vehicles in the world and serves in many armies to this day.

Building and painting tips

Cut the parts from the sprues and glue them with liquid modeling cement for plastic. Assemble and paint the link-and-length tracks before finishing the hull, and do the same with the road wheels and the interior if you want to show it. Apply primer and cover with an airbrush; choose olive green or a multi-tone camouflage according to the service you are depicting. Bring out the panel lines with a wash and add mud and dust pigments to the running gear.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of American postwar and Cold War armor
  • Anyone interested in the Vietnam era and the later service of the M113
  • Modelers building dioramas with infantry and carriers
  • Builders with experience of link-and-length tracks in 1:35 scale

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