Hobby Master's 1:72 scale JS-2 heavy tank is constructed using an intelligent mix of diecast metal and plastic. The top portion of the hull is made from plastic to replicate fine scale details such as the look and feel of cast metal up front (on the turret as well) and the lower portion from diecast metal to provide weight. The 360 degree rotating turret features an elevating metal gun with an accurate muzzle brake and is fitted with a highly detailed machine gun. Additional details include separately applied battlefield equipment such as a shovel and spare track segments. The twelve road wheels and their associated torsion bar suspension system are also accurately modelled.
