Takom Afghan Army T-54B Medium Tank (1/72) 05025

Takom Afghan Army T-54B Medium Tank This Takom 1/72 scale plastic model kit recreates the T-54B Medium Tank in Afghan Army service. The T-54B was a Cold War Soviet main battle tank that served with dozens of countries and saw action in many major post-war conflicts, making it a significant armoured vehicle subject for modellers interested in Cold War military history. The T-54B was used by Afghan government forces as well as by the Soviet Army. By the time of the Soviet-Afghan War of 1979-1989, it was no longer the Soviet Union's principal battle tank, but it remained part of the wider armoured vehicle story of the conflict and period.
