Eduard 35406 is an advanced photo-etched upgrade set dedicated to models of the M-113 armored personnel carrier in 1/35 scale, manufactured by Tamiya. This set of three highly detailed photo-etched sheets is the perfect solution for modelers looking to enhance the historical accuracy and realism of their project. The famous M-113, originating from the United States, has become one of the most recognizable armored personnel carriers in the world – used by many NATO armies and allied countries, including the United States, Germany, Israel, and Australia.

Historically, the M-113 was introduced into service during the Cold War era, and its first battlefields were in the Vietnam War (the 1960s and 70s). Since then, it has participated in dozens of armed conflicts up to the present day. It featured aluminum armor and exceptional versatility – serving as everything from a troop transport to a platform for mounting weaponry and specialist equipment.

The Eduard 35406 set is made from high-quality photo-etched metal. This material stands out for its precision – allowing for faithful reproduction of both interior and exterior details such as locks, handles, grilles, handrails, mounting straps, and components of the running gear and vehicle interior. The complete set includes three carefully crafted photo-etched sheets, perfectly matched for assembly with the Tamiya M-113 1/35 model.

This product falls under the category of "photo-etched parts – accessories for plastic model kits" and is especially recommended for advanced modelers with a difficulty level of 4/5. The use of photo-etched accessories significantly increases the realism of the model, enabling the creation of detailed dioramas as well as top-level competition models. For military enthusiasts, diorama builders, or fans of armored vehicles from the Cold War era and beyond, this Eduard set is the best choice to achieve that “wow” factor.
