T-54 AMMO KIT
The 1st independently designed AMMO by Mig Jimenez plastic model kit in 1:72 scale. For this momentous product release, we have chosen the world renowned Russian designed T-54B, an equally exciting subject. This universally admired battle tank has served scores of nations around the globe and endured more than a half century of conflict. Our professional vehicle research and access to running examples for measurements has resulted in a marvel of accuracy in this fine scale replica.
The thoroughly researched camouflage and markings guide included with this kit faithfully reproduce a host of attractive options. Because of the prolific service record of this vehicle, the choices of camouflage colors and markings are limited only by references and your imagination.
T-54B SERVICE
Going into production in 1957, the T-54B was developed in 1955, and featured a new 100mm D-10T2S main gun fitted with the Tsyklon 2-axis stabilizer, which could fire specially developed APFSDS rounds to dramatically improve armor penetration.
The T-54B was the first Soviet tank to be fitted with night-fighting equipment, which consisted of the L-2 Luna infrared gun sight and OU-3 infrared searchlight for the commander. The T-54 successfully served the North Vietnamese in combat and made international headlines in 1972 during the Easter Offensive and once again in 1975 photographed crashing through the gates of the Presidential Palace in Saigon, signaling the end of Vietnam’s civil war.
Variants of the T-54 saw action during the Hungarian Revolution in 1956, served Egypt and Syria during the Six-Day War of 1967, and were captured during the 1973 Yom Kippur war to be updated and serve as the Tiran-4. The tank was also heavily used by Iraq during the 8-year long Iran Iraq War of the 1980’s, and several are currently serving in the Syrian Civil War in the Aleppo area.
The T-54 is a Soviet Main Battle Tank from the Cold War period. The first prototypes of this vehicle were built in 1945-1946, and serial production in the USSR started in 1946 and lasted until 1958. In its course, about 35,000 vehicles of this type were created - only in the Soviet Union! The combat weight of the tank was up to 36 tons. The drive was provided by a single 520 HP W-54 engine. The main armament was the 100 mm D-10T wz.1944 tank gun, and the additional armament was two 7.62 mm SGMT machine guns and a 12.7 mm DSzK machine gun.
Work on the T-54 actually started during the Second World War and dates back to the T-44 tank. When developing the T-54, the aim was, on the one hand, to maintain all the advantages of the T-34/85 (especially its good maneuverability), but also to use clearly stronger main armament and more effective armor. Finally, a vehicle was created that is probably the first to be called the Main Battle Tank (MBT). Without a doubt, it was a successful tank when it entered service. Several versions of this vehicle were created in the course of mass production, including the T-54 mod. 1946 (version with a turret similar in shape to the T-44), T-54 mod. 1949 (version with a changed shape of the turret) or the T-54A (version with a gun stabilizer on one level and night vision devices for the mechanic-driver). It is worth adding that the T-54 was licensed in, among others, Czechoslovakia and Poland.
