E.T. Model E35-134 Modern U.S. M1070 HET CPK Cab (For HOBBY BOSS 85502) 1/35 – Photo-Etched Parts Set

E.T. Model E35-134 Modern U.S. M1070 HET CPK Cab is a professional photo-etched parts set, specifically designed for the Hobby Boss 85502 1/35 scale plastic kit depicting the modern American M1070 Heavy Equipment Transporter (HET) with CPK cab. This set is intended for advanced modelers aiming for maximum detail and realism in their replica builds.

The M1070 HET is a heavy logistics vehicle introduced into U.S. Army service in the late 1990s, and has seen intensive use during conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan (modern era). The vehicle was designed to transport heavy tanks such as the M1 Abrams over long distances. The CPK (Crew Protection Kit) cab was specially reinforced, dramatically improving crew safety in combat conditions—mainly through the addition of fragmentation-resistant components, extra armor, and an anti-blast protection system.

The E.T. Model E35-134 set includes highly precise photo-etched parts made from thin brass sheet. These components are primarily intended to replicate fine exterior and interior details of the armored cab, such as handles, ventilation grilles, door fittings, bolts, hinges, and armor mounting brackets. The elements fit the HOBBY BOSS 85502 kit perfectly, significantly streamlining and enhancing the construction process.
