TAMIYA RC 1/14 RCT BRITISH CENTURION MK.III WITH CONTROL UNIT

Tamiya RC 1/25 British Battle Tank Centurion Mk.III (w/Control Unit) Assembly Kit

Take command of a Korean War stalwart with the Tamiya Centurion Mk.III, a 1/25 scale kit built around a dedicated control unit. Please note this is an unassembled kit requiring construction, so builders should expect to assemble the hull, turret, and twin-motor gearbox before driving. Developed to counter increasingly capable German armor, the Centurion became Britain's post-WWII main battle tank, and the Mk.III variant — upgunned with the powerful 20 pounder gun — was widely regarded as a lynchpin of Allied forces during the Korean War, with roughly 2,800 examples built between 1948 and 1956 and used by militaries including India, Israel, and Egypt.

An assembly-type twin gearbox sits in the hull rear, with dual Type 130 motors controlled via the included MC-07 control unit for a range of speeds and turning circles, even pivots. Movable Horstmann suspension with metal coil springs adds realistic motion over obstacles, while pre-assembled tracks and four included marking options round out the build.
