The BRDM-2 is a Soviet armored reconnaissance vehicle produced since the 1960s. Widely used around the world, it has proven its worth in numerous armed conflicts: from the Yom Kippur War and the Soviet intervention in Afghanistan, to modern warfare in various regions. This vehicle is distinguished by its mobility and its characteristic hull shape with four additional retractable wheels for overcoming terrain obstacles.

The E.T. Model E35-157 set features precisely made photo-etched parts allowing you to replace many plastic details – such as handles, meshes, vision port covers, or external equipment details. As a result, the model becomes more realistic and accurate to the original in 1/35 scale. The use of photo-etched parts provides the possibility of faithfully replicating even the smallest vehicle details, which is impossible with standard plastic components.

We recommend this set to all modelers looking to increase the realism of their builds, as well as to enthusiasts of Soviet military technology. The product is intended for those with experience working with photo-etched parts – difficulty rating: 4/5. This is a challenging yet satisfying choice, especially for intermediate and advanced modelers.
