Takom 2131 1/35 US Army 1/4 Ton Armored Truck

Model Kit

Developed as an experimental attempt to improve crew protection for the famous wartime 1/4-ton utility vehicle, the armored truck variant represented the growing battlefield need for mobility combined with survivability. Takoms 1/35 scale kit faithfully reproduces this unusual and lesser-seen U.S. Army vehicle with sharply rendered armor plating, detailed chassis components, and a well-appointed interior that highlights the improvisational nature of wartime field armor conversions. The distinctive armored bodywork gives the familiar Jeep silhouette an aggressive appearance that stands apart from standard reconnaissance vehicles.
