The most recent kit from Dragon is a T54E1, a U.S. post WWII tank -not to be confused with the Russian T-54.
The kit is part of the Black Label series.
The kit is part of the Black Label series.
Development of the type was initiated in 1951, with the T54 representing a series of three prototypes that featured new 105mm-gunned turrets on the existing M48 Patton chassis.
The T54E1 had an oscillating turret with autoloader. The turret had a nine-round drum autoloader under the 105mm T140E2 gun.
Dragon's kit shares some of the features of previous M48 models, but the upper hull has actually been completely redone because it bears different details compared to the M48A1.
Also the turret is completely new, and the complex shape with both rounded and flat surfaces has been particularly well done. The canvas used to protect the oscillating design of the turret is portrayed in DS, so as the tracks.
