Academy 13292 K200A1 KIFV 1/35 – Plastic Model Kit

Academy 13292 K200A1 KIFV in 1:35 scale is a unique plastic model kit representing the South Korean K200A1 KIFV (Korea Infantry Fighting Vehicle). This model is a faithfully reproduced miniature of the vehicle that has remained the main armored personnel carrier for the Republic of Korea Army from the 1980s to the present day.

The original K200A1 was introduced into service in 1985 and was designed in response to the need for a modern armored personnel carrier and infantry fighting vehicle for the South Korean armed forces. The vehicle, designed by Daewoo, was primarily used within South Korea but was also adopted by the Philippine Army. It has participated in a variety of training exercises, peacekeeping missions, and internal operations in the East Asian region.

The Academy 13292 model is made of high-quality plastic, ensuring ease of processing and convenience during assembly. The kit includes detailed parts that allow faithful reproduction of characteristic vehicle elements: a turret armed with a machine gun, finely detailed suspension, drive system, and realistic armor texture. The model does not include resin accessories or photo-etched parts, but it provides very good quality plastic details. Components require separately available glue and model paints.

This product falls into the category of “plastic model kits” and is intended for both intermediate and advanced modelers. It is an excellent choice for enthusiasts of modern military technology and for those interested in conflicts and equipment from the Korean Peninsula region. The 1:35 scale ensures a high level of detail, while the precise assembly instructions support the building process.
