This 1:72 scale model represents the M60A1 RISE (P), one of the most advanced variants of the iconic U.S. M60 main battle tank, widely used by the U.S. Marine Corps during the Cold War and early modern conflicts.
The term RISE (P) stands for “Reliability Improvement of Selected Equipment – Passive”, referring to upgrades that enhanced the tank’s reliability, armor protection, and night vision capability. Armed with a 105 mm M68 gun, the M60A1 combined firepower, durability, and battlefield efficiency.
The Academy kit includes finely detailed molding, a rotating turret, realistic tracks, opening hatches, and optional machine gun and stowage accessories.
High-quality decals provide USMC markings in olive drab or NATO three-tone camouflage, representing service from the 1970s through the 1990s.
A well-balanced and authentic model that captures the strength and legacy of U.S. Marine armor.
