The Bronco CB35151 British Cruiser Tank A10 Mk. IA/IA CS Cruiser Tank Mark IIA/IIA CS (Balkans Campaign) model in 1:35 scale is a highly detailed replica of the British cruiser tank from World War II. This plastic model kit is designed for demanding modelers wishing to recreate historic vehicles used by the British Army during the Balkans Campaign.

Historical information and application

The British Cruiser Tank A10 was developed at the turn of the 1930s as an evolution of the earlier A9, featuring reinforced armor. The Mk. IA/IA CS and Mk. IIA/IIA CS variants were designed both for standard combat and for close support with a 3.7-inch howitzer. These tanks entered service in 1939 and actively participated in military operations in Europe, North Africa, and the Balkans—including during the Balkan campaign in Greece and Yugoslavia from 1941 to 1942. They mainly served with British forces as well as the supporting Dominion and Allied troops.
