ET Model P35-330 PLA ​​Vehicles Smoke Launch Type.2 1/35

E.T. Model P35-330 PLA Vehicles Smoke Launch Type.2 1/35 is a specialized photo-etched set designed for modelers who are passionate about replicating modern armored vehicles of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) in 1/35 scale. This product is dedicated to the realistic reconstruction of the Type.2 smoke grenade launcher—an advanced protection system used on the latest Chinese combat vehicles, such as the ZTZ-99A, ZBL-09, or the export-oriented VN-1. These systems have become standard equipment for the PLA in the contemporary era, significantly improving the survivability of vehicles on the battlefield by quickly deploying smoke screens that protect against detection and the guidance of anti-tank missiles.

The history of these systems’ deployment goes back to the first decade of the 21st century, when the Chinese People’s Liberation Army began to introduce advanced solutions for protecting their vehicles during exercises, maneuvers, and low-intensity conflicts. Modern Chinese tanks and APCs using Type.2 launchers can be seen in numerous military parades and during international exercises, highlighting the army’s level of modernization.
