Building on the success of its recent line-up of 1/35 scale kits of the famous
M48 Patton medium tank, Dragon has turned its attention to special Israeli
versions of the tank. Dragon is thus proud to announce the release of its very
first Magach. Notably, this is a 2-in-1 kit, as modelers can elect to build
either a Magach 1 or a Magach 2 variant as used by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).
A whole range of Magachs based on both the M48 and M60 was introduced right
through to the Magach 7, with continual improvements made as the result of
painful lessons learnt in combat
This 1/35 scale kit inherits many of the excellent features of Dragon’s
preceding M48A1 model, but it has been suitably modified to represent Magach 1
and 2 tanks serving in the IDF. As a 2-in-1 kit, it offers modelers great
flexibility, and all necessary parts to build either variant are included in the
box. Compared to the M48A1, there are brand new fenders, engine deck and muzzle
brake. There’s a generous selection of photo-etched parts for delicate
elements such as tool brackets, plus the tank uses tracks made from DS for added
convenience. This is a splendid and highly detailed kit of the Magach 1 and 2,
as Dragon delves into the fascinating world of Israeli armored vehicles.
