Condition: New
The Tamiya 1/35 Military Miniature Series No.239 German 18-Ton Heavy Half-Track FAMO is a highly detailed plastic model assembly kit of one of the largest German half-track vehicles used during World War II.
The FAMO was developed for heavy towing, tank recovery, artillery transport, and personnel movement. Its large size and distinctive running gear make it an impressive centerpiece for a military vehicle collection or detailed diorama.
This kit faithfully captures the vehicle’s powerful proportions, complex suspension, engine compartment, cargo bed, and recovery equipment. It can be displayed with other 1/35 scale military vehicles to create maintenance, towing, or battlefield support scenes.
