T-26 and 7TP variants

All kits are inter-related, sharing a number of common parts...each has about 150 finely moulded parts (some extremely small) along with vinyl tracks, very compehensive instructions (but no parts layout) and sometimes a small decal sheet. All road wheels are separate mouldings, gun(s) and turret(s) are moveable and upper hull detail is very good with accessories....including a shovel and an axe.

Kit 72605 - AT-1 Assult Gun - (no decal sheet)

Model built by Igor Delyanov

Model built by Igor Leonov

AT-1 assult gun

Sort of an SPG version of the T-26...the turret has been removed and a 76mm PS-3 has been fitted (along with two 7.62mm machine guns). The kit has the same lower hull and running gear as the 7TP/Vickers kits but there's a new upper hull with fully detailed PS-3 gun (with ammunition), optional position hatched and detailed interior. There are no decals.

Kit 72606 - T-26TN Armoured Observation Post - (no decal sheet)

T-26TN armoured observation post
Again, this kit has the 7TP/Vickers lower hull with an upper hull similar to the AT-1 (instead of the PS-3 gun there's just a single 7.62mm machine gun). There are optional position hatched and a detailed interior...no decals.

Kit 72607 - T-26TB Ammunition Transporter - (no decal sheet)

T-26TB transporter
A brief description would be 'a storage box and small machine gun, mounted on a T-26 chassis'. The kit is as per the rest of the Mirage 7TP/T-26/Vickers kits...crisp and cleanly moulded with vinyl tracks, separate road wheels and good detail. The T-26TB has 200 injection moulded parts (some very, very small!), plus the vinyl tracks, large, well laid out, easy to follow instructions, but no decals (the vehicle does not have any markings).

Kit 72608 - TP-26 Armoured personal Carrier - (no decal sheet)

Kit 72609 - T-26 Model 1933 Light Tank

Kit 72610 - T-26A 76.2 mm Support Tank - (no decal sheet)

Model built by Brett Mahoney

Kit 72611 - T-26C model 1937 with 45mm Gun

Model built by Brett Mahoney - model built as Russian Winter T-26

Kit 72612 - T-26C model 1939 Light Tank

Finished model by Luciano Marcuzzi

Aber barrel, Part tracks and Archer rivets (these are at low visibility after the weathering - Luciano Marcuzzi)

Kit 72621 - Chinese Vickers E Mk.B

Chinese Vickers E Mk.B

This is virtually the same kit at the 'standard' Mirage Vickers E Mk.B kit but it comes without the built up area at the back of the turret (3 parts have been removed from the sprue) and it has markings for 2 Chinese and one Finish tank. There are well over 100 nicely detailed, injection moulded parts plus two 'vinyl' tracks.

"JyeHang Kau" Website

Kit 72627 - 76,2mm "Leningrad" SPG - (no decal sheet)

76.2mm 'Leningrad' SPG
Once again a T-26 chassis but this time with a platform and a 76.2mm gun mounted on it. There are 196 parts and the vinyl tracks. The gun is well detailed, as is the mounting platform, which has a realistic diamond pattern moulded onto the metal base....on to which 12 rounds of ammunition are fitted. As with the T-26TB, no decals are provided because the vehicle didn't carry markings.
