SMM3546E - Challenger I Detail Set Small

New Challenger 1 Products - SMM3546E

Intended for use with the Tamiya Challenger 1 Mk.3 (35154).

This set should be used in conjunction with the earlier SMM3546D Large Set.

The first Tamiya Challenger 1 kit (35134) is difficult to find, even though most parts also appear in the more recent Challenger 1 Mk.3 (35154) kit – depicting Gulf War 1.

The parts in this set allows you to:

a) add further detail to the SMM3546D Challenger 1 Detail Large Set.

b) build an earlier Challenger 1 – before Gulf War 1.

c) build a more updated Challenger 1 to the end of service, including in IFOR, SFOR and KFOR service.

SMM3546F - Challenger I Sideskirts

New Challenger 1 products - SMM3546F

PE skirt plates with 3D-printed handles, plus resin nut/bolt heads are included.

Designed for the Tamiya Challenger 1 (either version)

SMM3546G - Challenger I Turret Baskets

New Challenger 1 products -SMM3546G

These are 3D printed and fit exactly to the Tamiya kit.

Because of Gulf War 1, extra crew stowage became

a problem and several makeshift solutions were built

in the field for the campaign.

Standardised baskets became available soon after.

One long basket was fitted to the left side, and a smaller one on the right immediately behind the TOGs.

SMM3546H - Challenger I Glacis Armour

New Challenger 1 products - SMM3546H

A simple add-on part for those wanting to build an IFOR or SFOR Challenger 1 without going to the expense of the full SMM3546C Armour Package.

This should be used in conjunction with the SMM3546D Detail Set Large and/or the SMM3546E Detail Set Small.

For the IFOR mission to Bosnia (1995), after intial experience without them, front hulls were fitted with add-on glacis armour plates previously used in Gulf War 1 (part 2 from SMM3546C).

SFOR (1996) followed with the same equipment.
