Clash of Steel SU-100 Tank-Killer Company (x5 Plastic)

The Clash of Steel: SU-100 Tank-Killer Company set enhances your Soviet forces with five highly detailed plastic models of the SU-100 tank destroyer. Developed in response to German heavy armor, the SU-100 entered service in October 1944, featuring a powerful 100mm D-10S gun and thicker armor than its predecessors, significantly improving battlefield performance and earning popularity among its crews. 

In the Clash of Steel tabletop game, the SU-100's formidable firepower and enhanced protection make it a valuable asset against enemy armor. The set includes five unpainted SU-100 tanks that require assembly, allowing for customization to match your army's aesthetic. 

Please note that glue and paint are not included. This set is ideal for players looking to strengthen their Soviet forces with historically significant and impactful units. 

German use of assault guns that combined excellent armour and firepower with ease of manufacturing prompted the Soviets to begin the design of their own models. The reliable T-34 chassis was selected as one of the options to begin design work and by 1942 the SU-122, armed with a 122mm howitzer, was rolling off the production lines.

Continuous improvements in design resulted in first the SU-85, featuring the same 85mm gun as the T-34/85, and then the SU-100 which entered service in October 1944. In addition to the improved firepower, the SU-100 also had much thicker armour than its predecessors. This significantly improved the performance on the battlefield as well as making it popular with its crews.
