Trumpeter 05541 1/35 Soviet IT-1 Missile Tank*

The IT-1 was a Soviet cold war missile tank destroyer based on the hull of the T-62. The tank fired specially designed 3M7 Drakon missiles from a pop-up launcher. It saw a very limited service between 1968 and 1970. The large deadzone around the tank created by the missiles' minimum range combined with the limited amount of ammunition made it unpopular and impractical. Eventually, the tanks were converted into recovery vehicles.
