TOTW: T-72B M1989

The T-72B Model 1989 (often referred to as T-72B M1989 or T-72B obr. 1989g) is a further refinement of the T-72B main battle tank, incorporating several enhancements based on lessons learned from earlier conflicts. It features improved Kontakt-5 explosive reactive armor (ERA), which offers greater protection against modern kinetic energy penetrators and tandem-charge warheads. The tank retains the 125mm 2A46M smoothbore gun, capable of firing a variety of munitions including ATGMs, and is equipped with an upgraded fire control system for better target acquisition and engagement in various conditions. Visually, it is distinguished by its boxy ERA layout and additional armor plating, making it one of the most advanced variants of the T-72 series fielded before the introduction of the T-90.

  • Incredible 3D Models

    3D designer Bob Mackenzie is a talented artist. Because Bob is also a wargamer he understands the subject. This leads to 3D Models that are unparalleled when it comes to detail and accuracy. Furthermore Bob prints in 3D so he understands how vehicles need to be made to create the ultimate model for your game table.

  • Pre-Supported

    You will receive both the unsupported and pre-supported STL  files optimized for all three scales: 15mm (1:100), 20mm (1:72), and 28mm (1:56). Of course, the files can be re-scaled to any size if your favorite is not on the list.

    All the pre-supported files, in each of the three scales, have been printed successfully on an Anycubic Photon printer.

    Every model has been printed successfully.  Of course, 3D printing has many variables, and printers have different parameters.  Unsupported STLs and Lychee files will be included so you can tweak the supports for your situation.

    We have not tested these models using an FDM printer. However models of a similar quality for our previous BAOR kickstarter have been nicely printed with an FDM printer and there is not reason why the Soviet models should not also print to a similar standard.

  • 3 Different Scales

    All files are optimized for all three scales: 15mm (1:100), 20mm (1:72), and 28mm (1:56). Of course, the files can be re-scaled to any size if your favorite is not on the list.
