Italeri 1/35 M24 Chaffee Korean War

Recreate the American M24 Chaffee light tank in Korean War service with this high-detail 1/35 scale model kit by Italeri. The M24 Chaffee proved its agility and reliability during late World War II and into the Korean conflict.

Features & Highlights

• Scale 1 / 35 kit with detailed hull and turret representing the M24 Chaffee in Korean War era markings.
• Includes metal gun barrel, link-and-length or rubber tracks, and decal sheet for multiple versions.
• Accurate representation of the light tank’s 75 mm M6 main gun, infrastructure and service history. 
• Typical Italeri mould quality: clean parts, accurate fit and good value for modellers of intermediate skill level. 

How to Build & Modelling Tips

- Dry-fit major assemblies (hull, turret) before gluing to ensure alignment.
- Paint sub-assemblies such as road wheels, suspension and interior while parts are accessible.
- Use washes and slight weathering to bring out casting textures and panel lines.
- Consider representing the vehicle in a Korean War terrain or support scenario for added interest.

Why Add This Kit?

The M24 Chaffee may not have the heavy armor of later tanks, but its role as a light reconnaissance and support vehicle during the Korean War makes it unique. This kit is an excellent choice for modellers wanting a distinctive subject that blends historical relevance and build-friendly execution.
