Description
German Tiger 1 North Africa Professional Edition 1/16 Scale Heavy Tank – RTR from Heng Long – HLG3818-006
The German Tiger I tank, deployed in North Africa in late 1942, was a formidable force with its thick armor and powerful 88mm gun. To suit the desert environment, Tigers were repainted in tropical camouflage—typically a base coat of sand-yellow, sometimes with brown or olive-green disruptive patterns. These tanks served under the command of Erwin Rommel’s Afrika Korps, primarily in Tunisia. Despite mechanical issues in harsh desert conditions, the Tiger I instilled fear among Allied forces with its unmatched firepower.
This Heng Long Professional Edition model contains heavy duty metal tracks, road wheels, and idlers, while an extensive feature list includes lights, exhaust smoke, realistic sound system, Infrared battle system, airsoft BB launch, and more! All of Motion RC’s Heng Long 1/16 scale tanks utilize the latest TK7.0 MFCB for outstanding control, performance, and upgrade potential!
