Chi-Nu Medium Tank Platoon Bundle

The Type 3 Chi-Nu medium tank represented the pinnacle of Japanese armoured vehicle development in World War II, with the lighter Chi-Ha and Ha-Go types having proven no match for Allied Shermans. Developed from the successful and well-understood Chi-Ha, the Chi-Nu possessed considerably thicker armour, and crucially a 75mm Type 3 main gun. This was one of the most potent Japanese anti-tank gun designs, and when paired with the improved armour allowed the Chi-Nu to fight on roughly equal terms with the M4 Sherman. Although capable, it would never see combat as the entire production run of a little over 150 was retained for the defence of the Japanese Home Islands, waiting for an invasion which never came. However, it makes for a fascinating historical what-if! This great bundle gives you a full armoured platoon of three Chi-Nus. Included are assembly instructions and waterslide decals to customise your armour. Studio miniature painted by Darek Wyrozebski. Models supplied unpainted
