Tamiya 1/48 2.5 Ton 6×6 Cargo Truck

The Tamiya 1/48 2.5 Ton 6×6 Cargo Truck from our 1/48 scale military vehicle model kits range range accurately recreates the real-life US military cargo truck from World War II. This plastic model kit requires paint and glue to complete.

Nicknamed the Deuce And A Half the M35 2. 5 ton 6X6 supply truck was one of the unsung heroes of WWII, with over 800,000 produced. Designed to be easy to maintain and repair, the truck served in all theatres supplying the front lines with needed material. One notable supply operation that the truck took part in was the Red Ball Express supply chain that was created after the Allied invasion of Normandy. Its rugged versatility meant that it was extremely configurable and troops in the field often added their own modifications according to their needs, like soldiers in Vietnam who welded armour plates to their trucks.
