About product

The M60 A1 and A2 in 1:35, a set of fine parts

This item from the Italian maker Royal Model covers both main modernizations of the American M60 tank. It brings sheet components with which the most oversized plastic features of the original kit are replaced. It follows the dimensions of the Italeri kit.

Two different tanks under one designation

The M60 was the main battle tank of the United States from the beginning of the nineteen-sixties. The A1 version received an elongated needle-nosed turret and the proven cannon of 105 mm caliber, with which it served for decades with a number of armies. The A2 version, by contrast, was an experiment: it carried a short weapon of 152 mm caliber which, besides ordinary ammunition, also launched guided missiles. The fire control electronics caused trouble, and the nickname Starship that crews gave the A2 version was not meant flatteringly. It is precisely for that reason that the two forms are built differently in modeling practice.

Advice on building and coating

The metal features shape well over the edge of a steel ruler; make the bend at once, as repeated folding breaks the material. Once it is assembled, degrease the model, or the paint will not hold on fingerprints. Olive vehicles of the Cold War look believable after dark accentuation of the joints and fine fading of the horizontal surfaces.

Suitable for

  • fans of American armored equipment
  • builders who compare a model with period shots
  • modelers with experience of thin metal parts
  • dioramas from Europe or the Middle East

The features are supplied without a surface finish; the kit of the vehicle, paints and glue have to be bought separately, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

Both stand on the same hull, so a large part of the accessory features is common to them. What differs is mainly the armament and the turret.

Crews used it ironically for the A2 version because of the complicated electronics, which often took their toll in service.

Yes, the finished assembly is rid of grease before painting and sprayed with a primer, or the coat will not hold.

For the Italeri kit in 1:35 scale. The base kit is not included in the package.
