Fujimi 091853 Brabham BT46 1977 Prototype 1/20 is a high-quality plastic model kit faithfully reproducing the legendary British Formula 1 car – Brabham BT46 – in an accurate 1/20 scale. This kit represents the prototype version from 1977, when designer Gordon Murray began implementing innovative solutions aimed at improving track performance and driver safety.

The original Brabham BT46 was developed for the Brabham team, a renowned British Formula 1 constructor, and was used primarily during the 1978 season as well as making appearances at Grand Prix events in the early races of the 1979 season. The car used an advanced 12-cylinder Alfa Romeo 115-12 engine with a 3-litre capacity and an impressive output of up to 525 hp. As a result, it achieved high speeds and provided spectacular track performance, although it was also considered difficult to drive and somewhat unreliable. Famous drivers such as Niki Lauda and John Watson drove the Brabham BT46, achieving victories and podium places in Grand Prix races.
