Big-box armour kits are the natural home of 1:25 military vehicle tow cables. Sets are cut for named subjects, among them the Pz.Kpfw.IV, the T-34/76, the SU-85 to SU-122 assault gun family, the Sherman, the Tiger and the Panther Ausf.G. Each one is a braided metal cable with matching eyes, already trimmed to the length the real vehicle carried on its hull.
At this size a moulded plastic cable gives the game away from across the room, so the metal replacement earns its keep on every long engine deck. Pick the vehicle first in 1:24 military vehicle kits, then the cable cut for it. Every scale sits together under military vehicle tow cables, and a matching metal gun tube waits in 1:24 and 1:25 turned barrels.
