C1 ARIETE

Extremely detailed model of the Italian Army C1 Ariete tank in service since the mid-90s. Model printed entirely in PLA, with 0.1 and 0.2 layers depending on the size of the piece.

 All pieces are designed to be printed on a 200X250 plate.

The turret is rotating and the barrel can swing (it can eventually be held in position for display with a screw system).

The tracks are free to slide thanks to the idler pins and a track tensioner system on the rear axle. In addition to the plastic, you will need an M5X20 screw and an M5 nut and about 7m of Ø1mm iron wire to join the track links and the side skirts and the hatch pins.

It is recommended to use another meter of wire to make the antennas, the handles and the platforms for the tankers to climb on.

The Arabic writing on the side means "ITALY" and was used as the standard colour of the conflict in Iraq.

In addition to the attached diagrams, there are NO FURTHER ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS and the model is not made in any particular scale.
