The Border Model BT-047 Sherman M4A1 Mid in 1/35 scale is a detailed model kit of the American World War II M4A1 Sherman medium tank in a "mid production" version. The M4A1 Sherman was one of the most recognizable tanks used by the Allies, distinguished by its rounded hull cast from a single piece of steel, which was unusual compared to other versions.  Features Scale: 1/35 – allows for precise reproduction of vehicle details, making it suitable both for stand-alone exhibition and for building dioramas depicting battles during World War II. Sherman M4A1 Mid "Mid Production" Version: The model recreates the vehicle as it was in its mid-production period, which means distinctive features such as a modified turret with commander's periscopes, various types of armor protection, and changes to the cooling system and suspension. Hull: The model depicts the M4A1 with a cast, rounded hull, distinguishing this version from other Shermans that had a welded construction. The cast hull gave the vehicle a distinctive look and was easier to mass produce. Turret: The turret has been faithfully reproduced, including space for the main armament, periscopes and commander's hatch, which allows the modeler to detail the tank both in combat and at rest. Details and weapons: 75mm Gun: The model features a precisely reproduced 75mm gun, which was the standard armament on the M4A1 Sherman versions. Additionally, the set offers details of the gun mounting system and options for its movable position. Machine Guns: The kit also includes Browning M1919 machine gun components and turret and hull mounting options to reflect the typical armament of the tank. Detailed elements: The kit offers many realistic details, such as suspension elements of the VVSS type (Vertical Volute Spring Suspension), running gear, load-bearing wheels, track details, air intakes, tow ropes and additional armor. All this adds to the authenticity of the model. Additional Armor Options: The kit may include additional armor pieces (such as sandbags, which were often added by crews for added protection) or other improvised additions. Decals and Paint Schemes: The kit includes a variety of decals to reproduce historical vehicle markings, such as tactical numbers, Allied symbols and unit markings that the M4A1 Sherman served with. A variety of paint schemes are available, allowing the modeler to recreate versions used on different fronts, such as Normandy, Italy and North Africa. Dioramas: The Sherman M4A1 Mid is an ideal vehicle for building dioramas, where it can be shown both in offensive operations and during the march through territories occupied by Allied troops. The possibility of combining the model with infantry or other vehicles from the World War II period gives modelers a wide range of possibilities for creating dynamic scenes. Level of difficulty: Due to the large amount of detail, the kit is suitable for modelers with an intermediate to advanced skill level. Precise reproduction of the elements requires accuracy, especially when assembling the chassis and weapons.

The Border Model BT-048 Pz.Bef.Wg.III Ausf.K 2in1 w/Schürzen in 1/35 scale is a detailed kit representing the German Panzerbefehlswagen III command tank in the Ausf.K version, equipped with additional side skirts called Schürzen . This is a unique model that offers two vehicle configuration options ("2in1"), giving modelers greater personalization options and the ability to recreate the different versions of the tank used during World War II.  Features Scale: 1/35 – this popular scale for military vehicle models ensures precise reproduction of details, which is especially important in the case of a command tank, where the accuracy of radio communication and command elements counts. Pz.Bef.Wg.III Ausf.K: Command version: The Panzerbefehlswagen III (Pz.Bef.Wg.) was a command tank based on the hull of the Panzer III medium tank. The Ausf.K version featured additional communication systems, which allowed for better coordination of troops in the field. This version was equipped with long-range radios and antennas, which was crucial for performing the command function. 2in1: The model offers two configuration options, meaning that the tank can be built in two different variants. This gives modelers the opportunity to choose between two versions that were used in different periods of World War II. Shields Covers: Additional Armor: The kit includes Schürzen side skirts, which were fitted to the sides of the hull and turret to increase protection against HEAT and armor-piercing shells. These armor plates became a characteristic feature of many German vehicles in the later stages of the war. Detailed Schürzen elements: The model offers realistically reproduced mountings and the shields themselves, which can be mounted on the hull and turret. This adds authenticity and allows for a better representation of the tank from the later years of the war. Construction details: Hull and Turret: The set offers precisely reproduced details of the hull and turret, including hatches, weapons, antennas and other elements characteristic of command tanks. The model allows for opening and closing the hatches, which gives the possibility of exposing the interior of the vehicle. Running gear: The set includes detailed running gear elements, such as suspension, supporting and idler wheels, and tracks. This makes the model very realistic. Armament: Main Gun: The Pz.Bef.Wg.III Ausf.K retained the standard armament of the Panzer III, including the 50 mm KwK 39 L/60 gun. The kit offers accurately reproduced weapon elements, including gun mounting systems and the option of a moving barrel. Machine guns: The model also includes realistic reproductions of the MG34 machine guns that were the standard secondary armament of Panzer III tanks. Extras and accessories: The set offers a variety of additional elements, such as towing ropes, service tools, ammunition boxes and details of infantry equipment. Thanks to these elements, the model can be enriched with additional accessories, which increases the realism of the final product. Decals and paint schemes: The set includes decals to reproduce historical vehicle markings, such as tactical numbers, Wehrmacht crosses and unit markings. The set offers various paint schemes, including classic camouflages used by German armored units on various fronts of the war. Level of difficulty: The model is intended for intermediate and advanced modelers. Numerous details and configuration options require precision and patience during assembly. Due to additional elements such as Schürzen covers, the set offers many challenges but also opportunities for experienced modelers.

The Nakajima B5N is a Japanese three-man bomber-torpedo aircraft in the low wing configuration of the Second World War. The flight of the prototype took place in 1937, and it was put into service a year later. The B5N was a response to the requirements of the Imperial Navy for the new on-board torpedo plane. Work on the construction, led by Katsuji Nakamura, continued in the years 1935-1937. When the war in the Pacific broke out, the B5N was an aircraft better than competing Allied machines, especially the TBD Devastator. The most widely produced version of the aircraft was the B5N2 Model 12, which was created in December 1939 and which used a new engine - Nakajima NK1A Sakae 11 with a power of 970KM. B5N planes took part in many battles in the Pacific and performed very well in the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Battle of the Coral Sea and the Battle of Midway. From around 1943/1944, these aircraft were transferred to aviation schools and served as kamikaze aircraft. About 1150 copies of all versions were produced.
