Panzer Art GB35-149 OTO Melara L/44 gun for MBT C1 Ariete 1/35 is a high-quality, finely detailed gun barrel accurately reproduced in 1/35 scale, designed to upgrade models of the Italian C1 Ariete main battle tank. This product was developed by the renowned Panzer Art brand, which specializes in model accessories and enhancements that ensure exceptional realism and fidelity to the original.

The offered barrel is a replica of the famous OTO Melara L/44 120mm gun, which is the main armament of the C1 Ariete tank—a modern armored vehicle used by the Italian armed forces (Esercito Italiano) from the 1990s to the present day. The C1 Ariete was designed to meet the highest battlefield requirements, with its versatility and reliability proven in both combat operations and numerous joint NATO exercises.

The barrel is made of top-quality resin, enabling excellent reproduction of even the finest structural details of the real OTO Melara L/44 gun. Carefully reproduced lines, textures, and technical features make the model look highly realistic, whether on a diorama or on display in a collection. The use of resin ensures outstanding durability and the rigidity required for precise assembly.
