As others have said, the kit needs a few corrections. The small blisters at the rear corners of the engine deck are air vents and need to be sawed off and spaced off the hull or at least undercut with a scribing tool. there should be two filler cpas on the engine deck bulge beneath the cupola. Airwaves, Eduard and others have photoetch sets will improve the kit's appearance a lot.
The rubber block tracks were available but rare in Korea. They do turn up on French tanks in Indochina, though (Vietnam). |
