HISTORY ASPECTS:
The A39 Tortoise Heavy Assault Tank was a British tank design developed during World War II that was intended to be used in the role of heavy breakthrough and assault tank. The tank was never put into production, but the design was extensively studied and evaluated by the British military. The A39 Tortoise was designed to be heavily armored and heavily armed, with a main armament of a 140mm gun, which was one of the largest guns ever fitted to a tank at that time.
This 1:72 scale replica of the A39 Tortoise is a highly detailed and accurate model that captures the unique and impressive design of this tank. The model is finished in the colors and markings of the British army during WWII, and it comes with an acrylic display case to showcase and protect the model.
Although the A39 Tortoise was never used in combat, it was a significant design in the history of tank development. The heavy armor and large gun of the A39 Tortoise were innovations that influenced the design of tanks that came after it. The British military evaluated the A39 Tortoise’s design and used the lessons learned to improve their tanks that were used in WWII, such as the Churchill and Centaur.
