MiniArt 37040 Mine-roller KMT-9 1/35

MiniArt 37040 Mine-roller KMT-9 1/35 is a precise plastic model kit representing the Soviet KMT-9 mine-roller, widely used by USSR armed forces and Warsaw Pact countries during the Cold War and in modern times. The model is made in the popular 1/35 scale among modelers, allowing for a faithful reproduction of the original construction's details while maintaining a convenient size for diorama presentation and armored vehicle collections.

The KMT-9 mine-roller is a specialized engineering device designed for neutralizing anti-tank mines. It was developed in the USSR at the end of the 1960s and was regularly mounted on vehicles such as the T-55, T-62, T-64, T-72, T-80, T-90, BMR-1, BMR-2, and BTS-4. The mine-roller was widely used in conflicts in the Middle East, during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, and in operations in the Caucasus, where it effectively enabled breaking through minefields for tanks and armored personnel carriers.

This MiniArt 37040 set offers an exceptionally high level of detail. The model is made from high-quality plastic, providing easy handling and painting. Additionally, the box contains photo-etched (PE) parts, which allow for a more accurate reproduction of delicate and detailed construction elements such as armor and mounting parts.
