Voyager Model PE35903 is an advanced photo-etched upgrade set dedicated to the Russian BTM-3 High-Speed Trench Digging Vehicle model (high-speed trench excavator BTM-3) by TRUMPETER in 1/35 scale. This product is specifically designed for the TRUMPETER 09502 kit, allowing you to elevate the model’s realism to the highest level.

The BTM-3 is a specialized engineering vehicle from the Soviet Union, designed for rapid excavation of trenches and dugouts for military needs. Mainly used by the Soviet Army since the Cold War era, the BTM-3 was widely utilized from 1957 to 1991 during armed conflicts, exercises, as well as engineering works within the Warsaw Pact countries and allied states. This highly specialized vehicle participated, among others, in the 1968 invasion of Czechoslovakia and was used in various military operations up until the end of the 20th century.

The Voyager Model PE35903 set is made from the highest quality photo-etched brass sheets.
