Revell 1:35 T-26 World of Tanks

The Revell 1:35 T-26 “World of Tanks” is a plastic scale model kit of the Soviet T-26 light tank, released in a themed boxing inspired by the World of Tanks video game.

About the tank

The real T-26 was a Soviet light infantry tank developed in the early 1930s and widely used in the early stages of World War II.

Key characteristics of the real vehicle:

• based on the British Vickers 6-Ton design

• 45mm main gun (in later variants)

• thin armour suitable for infantry support roles

• widely used in the Spanish Civil War, Winter War, and early WWII

• largely obsolete by mid-war due to armour and mobility limitations

Despite its weaknesses, it was produced in large numbers and played an important early-war role.
