About product

Strv m/37 in 1:72 scale, a resin kit

A resin kit for experienced modelers in 1:72 scale. The whole model is cast in resin and the parts are few, so it can be built over a few evenings. Decals with markings for three vehicles are included, covering both the earlier and the later camouflage finish and a winter scheme. A resin kit is not a plastic one: it is glued with super glue and the parts need preparing before the build.

The real subject

The Strv m/37 was a light reconnaissance tank which Sweden acquired on the basis of the Praga AH-IV design from Czechoslovak production. The vehicle had a crew of two and machine gun armament of eight millimeters in the turret; the armor was thin and gave no protection against artillery, but the tank was fast, small and undemanding. Forty-eight of them came to the Swedish army and they remained in service until 1953, long after similar vehicles had become obsolete elsewhere.

Building and painting tips

First wash the parts in lukewarm soapy water, so that the mold release residue disappears from them; otherwise neither glue nor paint will hold. Cut off the casting blocks with a saw or a cutter and sand the surface; protect your airways when sanding resin, because the dust is fine. It is glued with super glue. The camouflage of this vehicle is broken up over a small area, so spray it from a distance for a soft edge, or use a masking putty.

Who the model is for

  • experienced modelers who have built in resin before
  • collectors of interwar and Swedish equipment
  • anyone interested in vehicles derived from a Czechoslovak design
  • builders in small scales who want something unusual

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