AFV Club AG35051 US 120mm AMMO SET 1/35 is a meticulously designed 120mm ammunition set intended for advanced modelling projects in the popular 1/35 scale. It was created to complement modern U.S. Army armored vehicle models—especially main battle tanks such as the M1 Abrams. This high-quality set is aimed at modelers who wish to enhance the realism of their dioramas, models, and scenes with contemporary US Army units.

Historical Information

The 120mm caliber ammunition depicted by this set was introduced into service with the implementation of the M1A1 Abrams tanks at the turn of the 1980s and 1990s, spanning the late Cold War and modern times. This type of ammunition has been used in various conflicts, including Operation “Desert Storm” (1991), missions in Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as in US Army training exercises. The 120mm rounds represent a wide range of shells, from APFSDS (armor-piercing fin-stabilized discarding sabot), to high-explosive and multipurpose rounds, most commonly stored in specialized containers inside the tank.
