OSHKOSH 1070F Tractor & King GTS100/7 Trailer

The OSHKOSH 1070F Tractor & King GTS100/7 Trailer combination is the new UK HET (Heavy Equipment Transporter) which will be in full service from July 6th 2004.The UK HET will replace the venerable Scammell Commander (see our kit K060) which has provided wonderful service throughout its long hard working life.
This massive transporter can carry all UK combat vehicles such as the Challenger-2 MBT,  Warrior IFV (2 off!), ISO containers, indeed any load you can imagine, (and many you can't!). The M1070F is based on the US Army M1070 Tractor (see our kit K153T), and shares some of the chassis and drive-train items, but is completely reworked externally for UK use and fitted with a larger engine. The GTS100/7 Trailer by King is all new. All up Gross Train Weight (GTW) for a fully loaded HET is 118 Tonnes. Maximum speed is 50 mph.
This massive model by David Jane and Rob Tearle was designed and produced by us with the full co-operation of Fasttrax, Oshkosh and King. We are delighted to say that Accurate Armour are presently supplying these models and our Challenger-2 to the defence industry consortium to mark 'The UK's largest ever heavy haulage equipment contract'.
This 1/35th scale model includes full interior detail, engine, suspension and transmission, stowage, etched brass detail set, glazing and full colour decals. The completed model is 26.5" (673mm) long, 4" (101mm) wide and 4.25" (118mm) high. Further details for the tractor and trailer can be found by selecting products K154T and K154S.

Miscellaneous Special Collection

Full motion control via a improved DMD T-07 unit -- adding synchronized sound to every action (forward, reverse, turns, pivoting, turret rotation, barrel elevation). Also now the 7.2V battery unit is located in the turret, allowing easy maintenance
Authentic sound system recreates all of the sounds for the above actions, plus starting, idling and shutdown. Tamiya digitally recorded the working MTU MB873-Ka501 turbo charged engine in Germany just for this kit!
Firing of the main gun and co-axial machinegun is accompanied by a strobe flash, and sound and barrel recoil/hull kickback for the ultimate in realism. The elevetion of the main gun automatically returns to the loading angle after each firing, as does that of the actual tank. The co-axial machine gun also flashes with synchronized sound. The turret is fitted with 20 supporting steel balls at the turret ring, enabling smooth rotation. Also when rotating the turret with the depressed barrel, rotation automatically stops and the barrel is elevated to avoid the engine deck, and rotation resumes!
Die-cast drive sprocket wheels and rubber-rimmed road wheels. Metal torsion bars give an excellent performance for negotiating uneven ground. Tracks (assembled) are the double pin type and have rubber pads on contact surfaces. The gun barrel is made of lathed aluminum. Photo etched engine grilles are included, and the bottom of the turret stowage bucket is included as a photo-etched part as well. The tank offers several patterns of illumination with the caution light on the turret roof, and head and taillights on the hull.
Comes with everything you need to make it run, including a 4-channel radio controller and receiver, 7.2V batteries and charger (batteries for radio not included), and all the inner mechanisms required to accomplish the features listed above.
