The A7V features additional hull front armor to increase survivability, reinforced suspension systems, and improved operational capabilities. Its L\/55 120mm main gun can engage enemy armor at ranges up to five kilometers. Design improvements include enhanced vision devices for poor visibility conditions, new track systems, and a redesigned turret rear basket. The Bundeswehr began receiving the first of 104 upgraded A7V tanks in September 2021.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eModel Features \u0026amp; Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScale \u0026amp; Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/16 scale R\/C assembly model kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHull length: 701mm (27.6\"), width: 241mm (9.5\"), height: 190mm (7.5\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 4.9kg (10.8 lbs)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eControl \u0026amp; Movement:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull range of R\/C movement: forward, reverse, skid turns, and pivots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e360-degree turret rotation with gun elevation control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRealistic barrel recoil and vehicle kickback action upon firing simulation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGun barrel control system automatically keeps main gun trained in set direction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear-mounted gearbox powered by two Type 540 brushed motors for realistic differential steering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElectronics \u0026amp; Sound:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-Function Unit (MFU) and DMD unit T-08 included (requires separately sold 4-channel R\/C system)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual speaker unit produces authentic engine sounds sampled from the actual MTU MB 873 Ka-501 turbo-charged diesel engine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRealistic main gun firing sounds and machine gun sound effects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLED lights for headlights, rear lights, brake lights, and muzzle flash effects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll sounds and lights coordinated with model actions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction \u0026amp; Materials:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDurable aluminum alloy lower hull chassis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eABS plastic upper hull and body shell with intricate surface textures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision aluminum gun barrel for enhanced realism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetal suspension arms, torsion bars, sprockets, idler wheels, and track pins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePre-assembled durable resin tracks with realistic rubber pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetailed depiction of A7V-specific upgrades including auxiliary power unit covers and exhaust grilles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with separately sold \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/tamiya-r-c\" title=\"Tamiya R\/C Collection\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTamiya Battle System\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e for interactive tank combat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes Control Unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighly accurate replication of the modern German Main Battle Tank Leopard 2 A7V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eRequired Items (Sold Separately)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4-channel radio transmitter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBattery pack and charger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBatteries for transmitter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eComplementary Products\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnhance your Tamiya R\/C experience with these related products available at MPM Hobbies:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/tamiya-r-c\" title=\"Tamiya R\/C Collection\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTamiya R\/C Tanks \u0026amp; Vehicles\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/tamiya\" title=\"Tamiya Products\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTamiya Model Kits \u0026amp; Accessories\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eR\/C Battery Packs \u0026amp; Chargers\u003c\/strong\u003e (check our R\/C accessories section)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4-Channel Radio Systems\u003c\/strong\u003e (check our R\/C electronics section)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Tamiya 1\/16 Leopard 2 A7V Full-Option Kit delivers museum-quality detail, advanced electronics, and thrilling R\/C performance in one exceptional package.
