{"product_id":"1-48-british-churchill-mk-vii-crocodile-tank","title":"1\/48 British Churchill Mk.VII Crocodile Tank","description":"This is a 1\/48 scale plastic assembly kit model of the British Tank Churchill Mk.VII Crocodile. The Churchill design was the result of a chastening experience for British forces in early WWII, a more modern design that could be produced quickly to make up for armour shortfalls after the Dunkirk evacuations. The Mk.VII variant was up-gunned with a 75mm gun and had improved armour up to 152mm thick! The Crocodile is one of the most notable “special” variants of the Churchill. It had an 80-plus meter range flamethrower in place of the front machine gun, towing its fuel and compressed nitrogen propellant in a trailer behind.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong style='box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: \"Open Sans\", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);' id=\"isPasted\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"box-sizing: inherit; color: rgb(1, 125, 197);\"\u003eAbout the Model\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/48 scale plastic model assembly kit.
