Italeri Elefant Model Kit 1:35 Tank Destroyer

Italeri Elefant brings the Sd.Kfz.184 Panzerjager Tiger(P) to 1:35 scale as a detailed military model kit based on the heavy tank destroyer developed for Wehrmacht anti-tank units during World War II. The subject combines a heavily armored silhouette with the distinctive long 88 mm gun, giving the finished build the imposing stance associated with the Elefant name. The design traces back to the VK 45.01 (P) chassis, first fielded under the name Ferdinand in honor of Ferdinand Porsche before later vehicles in service were upgraded to the Elefant standard by the end of 1943. That historical shift gives the build extra depth for collectors who enjoy placing a model within a specific stage of wartime development. The assembly kit format leaves room for painting, finishing and applying markings to bring out the angular superstructure, road wheel layout and tracked running gear. Decals for 3 figures are included to extend the display beyond the vehicle itself. With an assembly time of 600 minutes, the project suits a slower bench session built around careful construction and finishing. Once completed, the model fits naturally into a World War II armor lineup, a diorama setting or a shelf display focused on late-war armored vehicles.
