Available from Dnepromodel is a 1/35 scale kit of a Hungarian light tank designed during the interwar period.
Nicholas Straussler was a Hungarian engineer mainly remembered for devising the flotation system used by Allied amphibious vehicles during the Second World War. One of his designs during the interwar years was the Light Tank V4 that featured a three-point suspension with leaf springs and rubber bogie rollers. The project however did not go beyond the prototype stage.

Dnepromodel’s Straussler V-4 Early Version Hungarian Light tank. (35137) is a full resin kit that builds one model of the vehicle. Additional features include individual track links and photo-etched parts.

Our thanks to Dnepromodel for this update.

Interesting! I hope they decide to do the conversion he designed to turn the 17-pounder into a self propelled gun: Straussler also designed the Csaba armoured car. / Robin
