Product Introduction

●The ambition of the genius Dr. Porsche, embodied.

The VK.45.02(P) is known as the phantom tank developed by the very same Dr. Porsche who created the super-heavy tank Maus, after losing the competitive design selection for the Tiger I. Two versions were planned: a V-type with the turret positioned forward, and an H-type with the turret positioned to the rear, but development was halted once the turret itself was completed, and the pre-produced turrets famously ended up being diverted for use on the first 50 units of the Tiger II.

This model is a plastic model kit reproducing the German Army's VK.45.02(P) H-type prototype heavy tank at 1/35 scale. The turret uses the Tiger I (I, Porsche turret), and a machined aluminum part is provided for the 88mm gun barrel, dramatically improving precision. With weld marks and other fine details, it achieves a realistic finish as if the real vehicle actually existed. The running gear uses parts from the Elefant.
Comes with etched parts for the engine compartment grille. Enjoy the dignified form of the VK.45.02(P) H-type, one of the best-known among the German Army's highly popular super-weapon prototype tanks, right on your desk.
