1/16 U.S. Main Battle Tank M1A2 Abrams Full-Option Kit Overview: This large-scale Big Tank Series R/C model assembly kit recreates the formidable modern U.S. Main Battle Tank M1A2 Abrams. The M1 Abrams was formally adopted in 1980, and features highly recognizable flat surfaces and angular form, plus a powerful gas turbine engine. It was designed to be upgrade friendly, and various modifications throughout its service life have seen it remain at the cutting edge of military technology into the present day. One upgraded variant was the M1A1HA, which supported a 120mm smoothbore gun and depleted uranium armor on the turret and hull. The M1A2 evolved this design further with technological advancements such as the CITV thermal imaging sight, a Positive/Navigation System and integrated sights for the commander and the driver. Its IVIS system allows advanced communication and information sharing between friendly vehicles. The M1A2 appeared in 1992 and in 2003 it saw its first action, in operations in Iraq. Features: 1/16 scale R/C model assembly kit. Expertly recreated angular Abrams form includes depictions of anti-slip surface textures. The chassis is powered by a gearbox with 540-size motors and features metal parts such as lower hull, suspension arms, drive sprockets and more, for excellent durability. Aluminum gun barrel included. Utilizes traverse and elevation/depression movement, actuated by a servo and Type 130 motor. Multi-Function Unit is made up of turret and vehicle control units. It allows control of various movements via separately sold transmitter. These functions include turret rotation and gun elevation. It also ensures that a range of realistic sound and light effects (headlights, taillights, barrel flash) are paired with model actions. Gun barrel control system can train the main gun in a single direction, which it remains pointed in even as the tank moves or climbs, and the turret rotates. The included dual speaker offers highly realistic sounds. Durable resin pre-assembled tracks feature metal pins and connectors.
