Rye Field Model 5013 T-34/122 Egyptian 1/35 – a detailed model of the Egyptian tank in 1/35 scale

Rye Field Model 5013 T-34/122 Egyptian in 1/35 scale is an exceptionally precise plastic model kit that represents a unique conversion of the iconic Soviet T-34 tank from World War II, transformed into the version used by the Egyptian army. This rare vehicle variant was created by modernizing the Egyptian-owned T-34s—replacing the original turret and gun with a new construction armed with a powerful 122 mm M-30 howitzer. Egyptian T-34/122s were used primarily during Middle Eastern conflicts, including the Six-Day War (1967) and the Yom Kippur War (1973), operating mainly in desert theaters of warfare.

Carefully designed parts ensure precise assembly of the vehicle, and the extensive set of details allows for the creation of a realistic Egyptian vehicle model from the 1960s and 1970s, the Cold War era.
