The vehicle entered service at the turn of the 1950s and 1960s in the Soviet Army and was extensively used by allied countries and Eastern Bloc states. The PA (original) version was characterized by a fully enclosed, sealed troop compartment, the absence of a turret with automatic weaponry (usually armed with a DT-29 machine gun), and large side entry doors. The BTR-60PA was used in armed conflicts in the Middle East, Asia, and Africa from 1961 to 1972 until it was replaced by newer variants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/35 – ensures excellent detail reproduction for collectors and military modelers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountries of use:\u003c\/strong\u003e USSR, Warsaw Pact countries, many countries in the Middle East, Asia, and Africa.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeriod of use:\u003c\/strong\u003e mainly the \u003cstrong\u003eCold War\u003c\/strong\u003e (early 1960s to early 1970s)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e high-quality plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded:\u003c\/strong\u003e detailed assembly instructions, parts allowing accurate reproduction of structural details – model does not include glue or paints.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e plastic model kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAssembly difficulty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/5 – recommended for intermediate modelers and anyone interested in developing their skills in building military vehicles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \n  \u003cp\u003eThe Trumpeter 01543 model stands out for its high-quality detailing of the hull, wheels, and chassis, as well as faithfully recreated features specific to the PA version.
