Aber 35A092 Deep wading trunks for Cromwell and Centaur (1/35)

Aber 35A092 Deep wading trunks for Cromwell and Centaur is a high-quality set of photo-etched parts designed for British Cromwell and Centaur tank models in 1/35 scale. This product is manufactured by the renowned Polish company Aber, which specializes in aftermarket accessories for advanced modelers.

The presented set enables realistic reproduction of the deep wading trunks system, a characteristic feature of tanks used by the British Army during World War II. The Cromwell and Centaur tanks were widely used, for example, during the Normandy landings in 1944, where wading through water became necessary for overcoming natural obstacles.

Deep wading trunks are specially constructed stacks and covers fitted to the air intakes and exhaust pipe of the vehicle. Their purpose was to allow the vehicle to move in deep water by preventing water from flooding the engine and crew compartment. Thanks to these trunks, tanks could cross water obstacles during amphibious and offensive operations – a famous example being Operation Overlord.
