Thousands of Type 59 tanks were built at Factory 617 in Baotou, making it the most numerous tank in Chinese service for many years. Pakistan, North Korea, Vietnam and several other countries received Type 59s, and many remained in service into the 21st century. Chinese green or multi colour PLA camouflage gives this model a distinctive look among Cold War tanks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInjection moulded plastic parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTurret with the 100 mm main armament\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetailed tracked running gear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDecals and painting guide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eCement, paint and tools are not included.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hobby Boss","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53961840689418,"sku":"HBB84542","price":35.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0861\/4966\/0938\/files\/5f4c6bcf406c8.jpg?v=1792874555","url":"https:\/\/super-models.co.uk\/products\/hobby-boss-pla-type-59-1-medium-tank-84542","provider":"SuperModels","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
