Product Description

The M65 Atomic Cannon was developed in response to a request for an artillery piece that could fire off nuclear shells. Measuring 84 feet (25.6 m) in length and weighing just over 83 tons, the M65 required the use of two specially designed transporters. The weapon was tested at the Nevada Test Site on May 25, 1953 - the first and only time a nuclear shell was ever fired from a cannon. This exciting kit reissue, which is scaled from U.S. Army Ordnance blueprints, features movable parts, seven crewmen figures and U.S. Army decals.

857811 1/32 Atomic Cannon Review

Revell's reissue of the Classic Renwal model company's kit of the Atomic Cannon is a kind of Cold War artifact, providing a glimpse of an incredible weapon that was unique in its ability to hurl an atomic bomb like a conventional artillery shell, but with the characteristic massive explosive energy on a nuclear weapon. The kit faithfully recreates the same kit that many older builders and collectors of American Military Armor Model Kits saw on hobby and toy store shelves in the late 1950's and early 1960's. With its large size (over 30 inches in length) and complexity, this is not a kit for the very young model builder, nor is it a kit to use as a toy - this is a plastic model that, once built, offers a detailed view of a simple but hugely destructive weapon, one of several options America's military maintained during the most tense period in our history. This is a superb kit, and answers the call from many experienced modelers to return this Classic Renwal kit - thank you Revell!
