E.T. Model P35-113 Russian BTR-80 APC Weighted Road Wheels (Narrow) (3D Printed) For TRUMPETER Kit 1/35

The E.T. Model P35-113 set is a high-quality modeling accessory designed for the popular 1/35 scale models of the Russian BTR-80 armored personnel carrier, offered by Trumpeter. These are specialist, narrow road wheels with a distinctive weighted effect, created using advanced 3D printing technology. Thanks to this, they feature highly accurate tread patterns, detailed rims, and realistic deformation under the weight of the vehicle, significantly enhancing the realism of the model.

The BTR-80 armored personnel carrier was developed in the Soviet Union in the early 1980s as a successor to the famous BTR-70 and BTR-60. It features 8x8 drive, amphibious capabilities, and is widely used by mechanized forces and police units alike. It has participated in numerous conflicts, from the war in Afghanistan, through Chechnya, to the latest military operations. Realistically rendered wheels will add authenticity to any model of this vehicle.

Weighted model wheels give dioramas and models an extremely realistic appearance – which is especially important for displaying vehicles on soft or hard terrain. Modern 3D printing has made it possible to replicate even the finest details of the tread, rubber wear, or tire manufacturer markings.

The set is intended for intermediate and advanced modelers (difficulty level: 3/5). We recommend it to all fans of modern vehicles and to modelers striving for maximum realism in their miniatures. Replacing the wheels from the original kit with these 3D-printed ones will not only provide a higher level of detail but will also allow you to showcase the BTR-80 model in a unique way.
