Churchill Infantry Tank

The Churchill, undoubtedly one of the most successful and famous Britishtanks of the Second World War, is arriving to bolster your army very soon andhere is your chance to grab 3 of the beasts early so you can represent no lessthan 7 variants on your battlefield and keep the enemy guessing!

The British Army adopted a doctrine centered around the use of light, fast‘Cruiser Tanks’ coupled with slow, better armed and armoured ‘InfantryTanks’, that would be used to smash the enemy defences with infantrysupport… and the Churchill was a prime example of the latter – one of theheaviest Allied tanks of the war, it featured thicker frontal armour than thateven of the Tiger!

Although it suffered from being under-armed, a defect common to most Britisharmoured vehicles of the period, it was nevertheless loved by its crews: itscross-country ability was unrivalled and it was less inclined to ‘brew-up’from a direct hit than the Sherman.

It will be no surprise to you to know that it was named after the PrimeMinister, Winston Churchill, but you may not know that he had also been involvedwith the development of the tank as a weapon during the First World War.

Taking the form very reminiscent of earlier WWI tanks, the Vauxhall motorsbuilt Churchill was the basis for a slew of variants from the MkI with a 2pdrgun to the MkVII 75mm guns. Other versions would see more specialist engineeringequipment added including the likes of bridging equipment and minesweepingdevices – and a favoured ‘close support’ option of the 95mm howitzer!

In this new plastic kit from Warlord and Italeri you'll get 7 turretvariations (yes – we said SEVEN!) allowing you to build thefollowing marks:

  • MkIII – with 6pdr gun
  • MkIV – Cast turret with 6 pdr gun
  • MkV – Cast turret with 95m Howitzer
  • MkVI – Cast turret and Welded turret with 75mm gun
  • NA 75
  • AVRE (Armoured Vehicle Royal Engineers) with 290mm Petard Mortar (aka theflying dustbin!)

Models supplied unassembled and unpainted
