The resin components of the "Sand armor" set allow for the installation of sand shields on the model, used by Americans on LVT (Landing Vehicle Tracked) amphibious vehicles during World War II, particularly in the Pacific theater—such as the Battle of Iwo Jima or the fighting on the islands of Okinawa and Saipan. These shields protected the vehicles against sand and mud, as well as reduced the risk of damage from shrapnel and infantry fire.

The LVT was an amphibious armored vehicle widely used by the United States armed forces (US Army and US Marines) during World War II, mainly between 1942 and 1945. The models in this series were known for their versatility and ability to transport cargo and soldiers through difficult muddy terrain and over water.

Panzer Art components, including RE35-297, offer much better detail fidelity than standard plastic kits — every detail, texture, and joint is made to professional modeling standards. Using this upgrade allows any LVT model to reach a new level of historical authenticity.

Assembly difficulty: 3/5 — the set is recommended for experienced modelers and anyone wishing to develop their skills working with resin parts and enhance the realism of their historical models.

Highly recommended for World War II enthusiasts, Pacific diorama builders, and collectors of US Marines equipment. The accuracy of the details ensures satisfaction and a unique final effect.
