  • Description

    Tamiya is delighted to announce that our 1/16 R/C tank series welcomes a new addition – this time, the Centurion Mk. III.

    The Centurion was developed as a heavy cruiser tank to counter the powerful German Army’s tanks in the 1942 during

    WWII.

    The Mk. III was perhaps the most polished Centurion variant, equipped with the L/66.7 20 pounder long barrel gun.

    It was deployed in the Korean War in 1950, and showed off overwhelming strength which saved the Allied forces from

    crisis many times. The production reached about 2,800 between 1948 and 1956. After the Korean War, the Mk. III were

    deployed in European countries but also other areas such as India, Israel, and Egypt with their formidable force.

    • This is a 1/16 scale R/C model assembly kit. Length 603mm, width: 214mm, height: 187mm.
    • The powerful form is captured in style with realistic depictions of cast surface patterns and weld lines.
    • Control Unit uses 4 channels to control forward/back movement, sharp and pivot turning at any speed. Gun elevation, recoil and turret rotation can also be controlled. Engine sounds are synchronized with model speed, while main gun and machine gun firing are realistically accompanied by lights and sound (facilitated by DMD Multi Function Unit).
    • Comes with Type 380 motors (x2, running), type 130 motor (x1,turret) and TSU-03 servos (x2, gun elevation and recoil).
