Amusing Hobby shares further details on what to expect inside the box.
Fighting Vehicle 215 (FV215) came about as a British response to the Soviet IS-3 heavy tank. Weighing in at 65 tons, it was planned to mount the QF 183mm L4 Tank Gun. Set to be the match for the Soviet IS tank, the FV215 unfortunately only got as far as the mock-up stage. A couple of online sources have “a” or “b” as designators, which seem to imply FV215 variants. Tanks Encyclopedia however, contends that there was only one FV215 project, such that even the designation FV215b may be a misnomer.
Amusing Hobby’s British Tank Destroyer FV215B-183 (35A008) kit contains parts molded in light gray color, individual link tracks, a photo-etched fret, and a decal sheet.
FV215 background information was sourced from Wikipedia and Tanks Encyclopedia.
