The T-55 tank first appeared in 1958, a result of numerous improvements made to the (1949) T-54 series, and with a lineage stretching back to the wartime T-34 and the T-44.
The T-55 series has seen service around the world with many armed forces, including the Warsaw Pact countries, Afghanistan, Angola, Cambodia, China, Croatia, Egypt, Iran, North Korea, Poland, Somalia, Sudan, and Vietnam, and has seen action in key modern conflicts such as the Gulf Wars.
This title showcases the talents of several leading modellers, and presents Serbian, Iraqi, Czech, Syrian, and Russian variants across 1/35 and 1/72 scales. It also features several challenging projects that involve extensive scratchbuilding.
Nicola Cortese is the author of Modelling the IS Heavy Tank
Sam Dwyer has been building plastic models for over 25 years, and currently specialises in armour modelling. He is the author of Modelling the Marder SP Gun.
Graeme Davidson is a serving officer in the Canadian Army and has been an active modeller for over 20 years. He has previously written Modelling 14: Modelling the M113 Series.
