Build the legendary Vickers A1E1 Independent Tank with this 887-piece COBI construction set! A groundbreaking prototype heavy tank from the interwar period, the Vickers A1E1 is known for its innovative multi-turret design. With five rotating turrets, the main turret is armed with a 3-pounder cannon, while the other four are equipped with Vickers machine guns.
Originally unveiled in 1926 as a prototype for the British Army, the Vickers Independent tank design influenced future models, including the British Medium Mark III and Cruiser Mark I. The unique multi-turret concept was also adopted in Soviet tanks like the T-28 and T-35, making the Vickers A1E1 a key player in tank history. Today, the only surviving model is housed in The Tank Museum in Great Britain.
This COBI model is an exact 1:35 scale replica, created in collaboration with The Tank Museum. It features intricate details and durable prints (no stickers!), and comes with a British tanker minifigure, a display plate with the tank’s name, and The Tank Museum logo. This model is a must-have for collectors and history enthusiasts.
