Master Box 35154 Modern US Infantrymen Cordon and Search (1/35)

Master Box 35154 Modern US infantrymen Cordon and Search in 1:35 scale is a high-quality plastic figure set representing contemporary soldiers of the United States Armed Forces. This kit accurately captures the realism and detail of soldiers conducting military operations using the "Cordon and Search" tactic—a popular method employed by the US Army and US Marines in 21st-century conflicts, especially in the Middle East (Iraq, Afghanistan).

Manufacturer Master Box LTD specializes in realistic and dynamic combat diorama sets, and this model is an excellent example of the company's craftsmanship. The set consists of precisely rendered American soldiers in full gear—ACH helmets, IOTV bulletproof vests, authentic tactical equipment, and replicas of M4 carbines and M249 SAW. Particular attention is paid to the detail of personal equipment, modern helmets, and weapons—each accessory is simplified enough for the modeler to add their own paint effects, but at the same time detailed and realistic once assembled.

The figures depict soldiers operating in urban environments, conducting building clearing operations—typical for the "Operation Iraqi Freedom" and "Operation Enduring Freedom" (Afghanistan) eras. The cordon and search tactic involved blocking off a designated area, isolating it, and then searching homes and buildings for weapons, explosives, or individuals linked to insurgents. The set allows you to recreate authentic scenes from modern battlefields—after 2001, primarily during operations in Iraq (2003-2011) and Afghanistan (2001-2021).
