Tamiya 1/35 Military - Russian Heavy Tank JS3 Stalin - 35211

The Tamiya 1/35 Russian Heavy Tank IS-3 Stalin (35211) reproduces the most powerful Soviet tank to see service in the Second World War — the IS-3 (Josef Stalin-3) that appeared in the final weeks of the European war and shocked Western observers at the Berlin Victory Parade in September 1945. The IS-3's distinctive 'pike nose' glacis plate and low hemispherical turret represented a quantum leap in Soviet tank design and influenced NATO tank development throughout the Cold War.

Tamiya's 1/35 kit captures the IS-3's revolutionary hull shape, massive 122mm gun, and dominant presence with excellent accuracy.

Kit highlights:

• Accurate IS-3 with distinctive pike-nose glacis and 122mm D-25T gun
• Revolutionary low hemispherical turret faithfully reproduced
• Detailed running gear on IS-series hull
• Late WWII/immediate post-war Soviet marking options
• One of the most important and influential tank designs of the 20th century
