Centurion Mk.III RC tank

Product description : Centurion Mk.III

1/16 scale radio-controlled tank.
The Centurion is a British heavy battle tank designed during WW2 to counter the powerful tanks of the German army. It only entered service after the end of the conflict. About 2,800 examples were produced between 1948 and 1956. The Mk. III was perhaps the most successful variant of the Centurion, equipped with the L/66.7 20 pounder long barrel gun.
It was deployed during the Korean War in 1950, during which it demonstrated its superiority, repeatedly returning unfavorable situations to the allies. After the Korean War, Mk. IIIs were deployed in European countries but also in other nations such as India, Israel and Egypt.

Scale : 1:16
The scale 1:16 is used for large figurines, but also for model cars and armored vehicles. A 1:16 scale model will be 16 times smaller than the original. For example, a car whose actual length is 4m will be 10 inches / 25 cm long in the 1:16 scale (400/16 = 25). The figurines in the scale 1:16 are about 5 inches / 12cm high.
