28mm

The latest addition to its 28mm series features the French heavy tank of the Second World War.

The “Char de Bataille” B1 was the main heavy tank used by the French Army during World War II. The Char B1 was further improved to the “bis” version to increase its operational effectiveness. It mounted a 47mm gun in a turret, and a 75mm howitzer located in the hull. Following the fall of France, a number of Char B1s were used by German Army, with most employed as flamethrower tanks.

Italeri's Char B1 bis (15766) is an easy-to-assemble hard plastic kit designed for gamers and collectors. It contains parts to build one vehicle, including three figures. A decal sheet for six finishing options, depicting the tank in French and German use, completes the offering.
