Between 1941 and 1943, a significant number of Matildas were handed over to the USSR under the Lend-Lease program. Tanks of this type participated in battles on the Eastern Front, especially during the defense of Moscow and operations around Leningrad.

Period of use: World War II (years 1941–1945). The country using this version was the Soviet Union, one of the key operators of the Matilda as part of Allied cooperation. The tank was distinguished by its thick armor and reliability, although on the Eastern Front it was already somewhat outdated at the time.

The Tamiya 35355 kit is made of high-quality plastic, allowing for precise finishing and easy handling of the elements. The set includes plastic tracks, a Red Army tank crew figure, decals with Soviet markings, and a detailed assembly manual. The model features realistically reproduced hull surfaces, turret details, armament, and numerous external elements (tool boxes, vehicle equipment). There are no resin add-ons or metal parts, making assembly easier and recommending the kit for both beginners and intermediate modelers.
