The AVRE (Assault Vehicle Royal Engineers) version of the Churchill Mk.

These vehicles were equipped with a 290 mm Petard mortar and additional accessories such as mine plows and bridge components. The vehicle was actively used from 1943, achieving success on the battlefields of Western Europe until the end of World War II.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eModel scale: 1\/35\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eUser country: United Kingdom\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eHistorical period: World War II (1943-1945)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCategory: plastic model kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: high quality plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSet contents: unassembled model kit, photo-etched details, sprues with track components\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGlue and paints not included\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    The \u003cstrong\u003eAFV Club 35167 Churchill Mk.
