Meng Model 1:35 - US Cougar 6 x 6 MRAP Vehicle - Plastic model kit #SS-005
The Cougar is a wheeled armoured personnel carrier able to withstand land mines and improvised explosive devices (IEDs). It also protects both the crew and engine compartment against various attacks (including small arms fire) and overheating in desert environments.
The Cougar was developed in 2004 due to the urgent demand of the US Marine Corps. Based on South African design of the 1970's, the new vehicle featured the latest advancements of the US military including breakthrough technology in mine-protection.
About four thousand of Cougars were issued under the US MRAP (Mine Resistant Ambush Protected) programme. The carrier is remarkable for its high reliability and safety level resulting in low mortality rate among crew members after IED attacks. The Cougar was widely deployed during the Iraq War and still serves with the armies of the United States, Canada, Poland, Italy and other countries.

Meng Model 1:35 M1A1 Abrams TUSK Main Battle Tank
£58.00 GBP
Meng Model 1:35 - M1A1 Abrams TUSK Main Battle Tank - Plastic model kit #TS-032
The M1 Abrams is a modern U.S. third-generation main battle tank. It entered service in 1980 to replace the M60. The M1 is the principal main battle tank of the U.S. Army and the Marine Corps. It is also widely used by the armies of Egypt, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Australia and Iraq.
A modification of the first Abrams model, the M1A1 was introduced in 1986. It was equipped with a M256 120 mm smoothbore gun and a CBRN protection system. The tank first saw combat in 1991 during the Persian Gulf War. About 2,000 units took part in the liberation of Kuwait and only 23 of them were totally destroyed. The M1A1 fire could reach the enemy's positions at the range of 2,500 metres. That range was deadly to Iraq's Soviet-era tanks, inferior to the M1A1. In fact, the Abrams tanks could damage Iraqi tanks before they approached close enough to open fire. In 1992 the M1A1 was upgraded to the M1A2 version.

Takom 1:35 Chieftain Mk.2 British Main Battle Tank
Sold Out
Takom 1:35 - Chieftain Mk.2 British Main Battle Tank - Plastic model kit #02040
The Chieftain was the main battle tank of the British army between the 1960's and 1980's and is still in service today with Iran. Due to its powerful armament and effective armour the tank quickly became known as one of the most formidable tanks in the world (Source: Janes Defence). Based on the Centurion, the Chieftain design was remarkable for the supine (upward facing) driver position which allowed for a heavy slope of the hull resulting in reduced height of the vehicle. The tank road speed was 48 km/h which was higher than the speed of its predecessor.
The Chieftain Mk.1 was the initial model of the series. It was used as a training vehicle by both the 1st and the 5th Royal Tank Regiments. The next, the Mk.2 became the first service version.
The Chieftain front armour was 388 mm on the glacis (sloped armour plate) and 390 mm on the turret. The turret was constructed without a gun mantlet in order to make it possible for the vehicle to recline up to ten degrees. The armament included one L11A5 rifled gun and two L7 machine guns.
The tanks of the series first saw combat in the Middle East. They were widely deployed by the Iranian troops during the Iran-Iraq War in the 1980's and over a hundred of units served with the Kuwaiti army at the time of the Iraqi Invasion in 1990.
The Chieftain was successful on the battlefield and had potential for further development. The series underwent continuous updates during its service until it was replaced with the Challenger 1 in the early 1990's. Nowadays the tank is still used by the Iranian army.
Kit details:
- Detailed static display plastic model
- Individual tracks
- The gun can pitch
- Photo Etched and clear parts included

The rockets are carried by the 9P113 transport erector launcher (TEL). Derived from the ZIL-135 8x8 army truck, the 9P113 has a hydraulic crane used for reloading rockets from other transporters. The range of the rocket is up to 70 km and a CEP (circle of equal probability) is between 500 m and 700 m. The 9M21 can deliver nuclear or chemical warheads weighting 550 kg.
According to some experts, the 9M21 rockets loaded with nuclear warheads were transported to Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962. Also the 9K52 Luna-M system was extensively used in a number of Warsaw Pact states and in the Middle East. Currently it serves with the armies of Russia, Ukraine, Syria, Afghanistan, Egypt and several other countries.
