Vespid Models 1:72 Centurion British Main Battle Tank Mk.5/1-4.RTR Plastic Model Kit

The Centurion was a 50-ton main battle tank developed and mass-produced in Britain following the Second World War. Renowned for its robust design and considerable upgrade potential, the Centurion remained in service for over two decades, evolving through successive variants up to the Mk.13 before being replaced by the Chieftain.

The Mk.5 introduced the M1919A4 7.62 mm machine gun as its secondary armament to standardise ammunition with NATO forces. The subsequent Mk.5/1 variant incorporated an additional 2-inch-thick armour plate on the glacis front, a modification introduced after the original production run had ended to improve frontal protection.
