The KV-5 (Object 225) tank is one of the most enigmatic and impressive Soviet armored projects from the early period of World War II. It was intended as a Soviet response to German anti-tank guns. Characterized by extremely thick armor and powerful armament, it never went into production. Nevertheless, it is highly valued among military history enthusiasts as an example of Soviet technical thought during the war.

The Voyager Model PE35706 set allows a significant increase in realism and detail for the TAKOM KV-5 model. The fender components are made using photo-etching technology from very thin metal, which enables replication of even the smallest details—pressings, mounts, rivets, and bends in the plates—while maintaining the original scale. These fenders are not only much more realistic than the factory plastic parts, but also allow the model to be shown in a damaged or worn condition, which is highly valued in historical modeling.

This product is intended for intermediate and advanced modelers who want to bring their model to a higher level of realism and authenticity. Working with photo-etched elements requires precision, patience, and the use of specialized modeling tools.

Assembly difficulty: 4/5 – a set dedicated to users with some experience working with photo-etched parts.

We recommend Voyager Model PE35706 to anyone who wishes to accurately reproduce the prototype Soviet KV-5 tank and who appreciates the quality and high precision offered by the renowned brand Voyager Model. It is an indispensable addition that enhances the appeal of any historical diorama or collector's shelf featuring Soviet armored giants.
