CENTAURO (FIRST BATCH) W/ROMOR

The Italian “Centauro” is a 4-axles, all wheel driven armored wheeled vehicle. With good mechanical configuration; massive firepower and fine electronic hardware combine together, it is surly one of the best-wheeled armor car on earth. The first order of 400 vehicles was placed by the Italian army in 1989 and in 1993, just one year after its first issue to the troops, 20 of them were already deployed in the UN peace keeping task in Somalia. Since the performance of the Centauro is so outstanding, the Spanish Army also placed an order of 22 vehicles in 1999 and later added an order of another 62 in 2002. The third user to operate the Centauro is the Egyptian Army. _x000D_ Item No 01563 _x000D_ Item Name B1“Centauro”AFV Early Version (1st Series) ROMOR _x000D_ Bar Code 9580208015637 _x000D_ Scale 1:35 _x000D_ Item Type Static Kit _x000D_ Model Brief Length:242.5mm Width:89.2 mm _x000D_ Total Parts 380+ _x000D_ Metal Parts copper cable _x000D_ Photo Etched Parts 1 piece _x000D_ Film Parts n/a _x000D_ Resin Parts n/a _x000D_ Total Sprues 10 sprues,upper hull,lower hull,turret,poly cap and tyres _x000D_ Paint Schemes Italian Army _x000D_ Released Date 2012-05 _x000D_ More Features "Lower Hull / Suspension _x000D_ - One-piece multi-slide moulded lower hull _x000D_ - All the underside contours for the suspension and drive train which is entirely made up of separate parts _x000D_ - The central drive train with differentials and drive shafts are nicely detailed _x000D_ - Separate rear panel with separate rear armoured hatch and crew entry doors, separate latch handles inside and outside _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Wheels _x000D_ - The main tyres are hollow rubber with very good tread pattern included as well as sidewall details consisting of raised section ribs _x000D_ -Wheel hubs are in great details _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ Upper Hull _x000D_ - 2-directional slide-moulded upper hull with good clean crisp surface details included _x000D_ _x000D_ Turret _x000D_ - 4-directional slide-moulded upper turret _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ - Copper towing cable _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ PE _x000D_ -Over 32 photo-etched parts contains headlight guards etc."
