Aber 35G32 Grilles for Russian Tank T-55AM also for T-55AMV (1/35)

The Aber 35G32 set is a high-quality collection of metal ventilation covers (grilles) for T-55AM and T-55AMV tank models in 1/35 scale. This product, offered by the renowned Polish company Aber, is intended for both advanced and intermediate modelers who wish to enhance their model with highly realistic details.

The T-55AM tank and its upgraded version, the T-55AMV, were manufactured in the Soviet Union as modernizations of the standard T-55 tank. The upgraded T-55AM variants entered service at the beginning of the 1980s, during the Cold War era, aiming to improve the protection and effectiveness of this legendary vehicle. They were most intensively used in the countries of the former Eastern Bloc and in the Middle East. The T-55AMV featured additional ERA (explosive reactive armor) modules, which necessitated the use of new grille covers over the engine to maintain cooling efficiency while also improving protection. A notable example of these vehicles in practice was the war in Afghanistan, where T-55AMs served in Soviet units.

Aber 35G32 is a set of photo-etched parts made from thin, precisely cut brass sheet. Their quality significantly surpasses what can be achieved with plastic parts—allowing for a very realistic recreation of thin, lattice-like ventilation and masking structures, with appearance and proportions almost identical to the original. The set is designed for most T-55AM and T-55AMV model kits available on the market in 1/35 scale, regardless of the base model manufacturer.
