1/16 Radio Controlled Tank Series No.16 (ITEM TAM56016)
PLEASE NOTE THAT THESE TANKS HAVE THE NEW GEAR BOXES!
Things
just got realer. Starting with the 1/16 R/C sensation of the Tiger I Early
Production, and then with the M4 Sherman 105mm Howitzer, Tamiya continues to
develop its 1/16 R/C Tank Series. The third full-option kit to make its
appearance is the U.S. Medium Tank M26 Pershing that fought during the end of
WWII and throughout the Korean War. Tamiya keeps increasing its knowledge about
R/C tanks and improving the realism of their movement and sound to make their
appearance even more striking.

This is the 1/16 electric radio-control assembly kit of the U.S. Medium Tank M26 Pershing that made its appearance during the end of WWII. Not only can the model move forward and backward and turn with a great sense of power, but the turret can be rotated and the gun raised and lowered. Recoil of the gun and movement of the hull during shooting are also perfectly reproduced and synchronized. The sound of the engine has been recorded from a real Ford GAF Liquid cooled V8 engine, the metallic clanking sound of the tracks and the sound of the shooting of the main gun adapt to the model's movement. Moreover, this kit features headlights and brake lamps that light-up and main gun and front machine gun that flash.
About
the Engine Sound
The sound of the engine was digitally recorded from a real Ford GAF liquid
cooled V8 engine of the M26 Pershing at the Ropkey Armor Museum. All the
variation of sound of the real engine but also all the metallic clanking of the
track has been thoroughly recorded.
