Revell Bridge Laying Tank

RV03135

The Biber (Beaver) bridge-laying tank, based on the chassis of the Leopard 1 main battle tank, was introduced to the troops in 1973. The bridge spans were laid flat (free projecting front section), as compared with the previously used systems such as the folding or scissors bridge of the M48, offering a flat silhouette that did not advertise the presence of the bridge assault over long distances. The Biber can bridge over a 20 metre obstacle within 2-3 minutes and it does not take much longer to remove it. For wider obstacles 2 bridges can be laid to overlap. The 2-man crew (driver and commander) can control the whole procedure from the tank where they remain well protected.
