This plastic kit requires paint & glue to complete. While sustaining huge losses at the onset of war, the Russian army was able to halt the German advance just short of Moscow thanks largely to the strength of their tank troops. Following concentrated artillery fire, tanks advanced in three waves with infantry riding on the tanks of the 2nd & 3rd waves. Since the Russian Ground Forces did not possess armored troop carriers like halftracks & universal carriers, so-called Motor Rifle Units" were attached to every tank brigade to provide infantry support. Once encountering an enemys defensive position, tank riders would disembark, attack the position, & then remount to proceed with the offensive. These infantrymen spearheaded many attacks, & suffered heavy casualties from defending fire. Paint & Glue not included Manufacturer: Tamiya Model: 32521 Russian Infantry & Tank Crew WWII ...

During the end of 1943, the SU-85 was developed to replace the SU-76 self-propelled gun. The SY-85 was based off of the T-34 hull & armed with a 85mm gun. However, due to the thickness of the armor, demand grew for a more powerful tank. The SU-85 was modified in 1944. It was outfitted with a 100mm gun & renamed the SU-100. The 100mm did not have the same piercing power as the German 75mm or British 17pdr guns, but it was heavier than the 75mm & allowed the Russian army to easily destroy the German tanks. The turret-less design also was an advantage because labor & construction costs were 20% less. In contrast, the turret-less design left the SU-100 weak in narrow or sloped terrain. As a result, the SU-100 was used as fire support for infantry & anti-tank combat. The SU-100 remained in service until the 1970s. Specification: limited edition 1/25 scale plastic assembly kit. New parts to depict wooden logs have been especially included for this re-release. Moveable torsion bar suspension features same construction as seen on the actual tank.
