Gustav with Gusto! With over 30,000 produced, the Messerschmitt Bf109 is the most prolifically manufactured fighter in history; of its variants, the G-6 was the most numerous at 13,000 aircraft. In response to improving Allied foes in the air, Bf109 G aircraft had the more powerful DB605 engine, and from the G-6 were equipped with dual 13mm MG131 machine guns that required the distinctive bulges on either side of the cockpit cowling known as "Beule." Some were even given a 20mm cannon gondola under each wing for further improved firepower. The Bf109 G-6 was deployed on both the Western and Eastern fronts, in particular dominating Soviet adversaries as it continued in service through to the end of WWII.

Just like an actual tank track, this set closely resembles one piece at a time in the construction of a track. This set may be used instead of belt-type tracks found with German Panther tank kits included in the kit. Like those on actual Panther tanks, once your model has been completed and constructed, the weight of these tracks will also have a slacking effect to make your model more authentic. Includes 192 pieces for one Caterpillar attaching track.

This is a dedicated thinner for use with Tamiya Color Lacquer Paints. It can be used for diluting, or cleaning airbrushes and paint brushes alike. Bottle contents: 10ml

Workhorse As a part of its motorization from the years leading up to WWII, the German military took on the SS-100 - a heavy tractor based upon a commercially-developed agricultural vehicle. It was a workhose with a towing capacity of 20 tons, thanks to its highly reliable 6-cylinder water-cooled engine. Deployed by the German Army, Luftwaffe and Navy, the SS-100 towed all manner of subjects: field guns, aircraft, fuel and water tanks, V2 rockets, and even disabled vehicles, its versatility and reliability standing it in good stead.

Give your Tamiya 1/35 scale Type 90 tank model even more detail with this set of photo-etched parts. Finely crafted thin metal components depict turret rear rack sections in place of kit standard nylon mesh.
