COBI-2624 T-72 M1R tank

Using a set of COBI construction blocks you can build the extremely popular T-72 tank in the M1R modification for the Polish Army. This type of tank is used by only two armies in the world. These are Poland and Ukraine, which received them as part of military aid.

The COBI model was developed in the fantastic scale of 1:35 using 724 elements. The size of the tank matches the rest of the land vehicles issued as part of the Armed Forces collection.

Especially for this model we have developed a new block in the shape of the very characteristic road wheels of this tank. The model includes moving elements such as wheels, tracks, a rotating turret and a movable cannon. The hatch in the turret opens to accommodate the figure of a Polish or Ukrainian tank driver included in the set. The set also includes a brick flag of Poland and Ukraine and a plate with the model name printed on it. The T-72 tank was introduced into service in the Soviet Union in the 1960s and became one of the most widespread tanks in the world. In the following years it became the main tank of the Soviet Army and many Warsaw Pact countries. It was produced under license in Poland and Czechoslovakia. The T-72 tank has been widely used in various conflicts around the world, including the Iran-Iraq War, the Persian Gulf War and numerous others.

The T-72 tank is an iconic example of a Cold War tank and remains in service with many countries to this day. Modernization work is being carried out all over the world to adapt the tank to the requirements of the modern battlefield.
