Char de combat Kli-San (Multikit de la mise à jour 2024)

This is the most current version of the Kli-San Tank and has been rebuilt from the ground up compared to the original and deluxe kits. Those remain available should you so desire them.

The Kli-San is the standard battle tank of the Krevarian Dragoons, but is also found in service with other formations and is even produced for export to allies and trustworthy mercenary groups. The original specification called for an easily-transportable and sturdy universal tank capable of operating in the most hostile environments. The final design is tall for a frontline tank, but its height results in a roomy interior with plenty of space for life equipment, extended consumables storage, and even enough room for the crew to sleep in shifts inside the vehicle.

As a result of its sturdy and easily modifiable design, the Kli-San is the longest-lived tank in Krevarian service and is produced by most major fortress-cities of the Krevar March. As one might expect, this has led to a number of local variants and modifications to the original chassis over its long lifespan, and it is not uncommon for several marks of Kli-San to serve alongside each other.

Early Kli-San variants are distinguished by low return rollers, external stowage, and a secondary weapons turret in the front hull. The turret of the early marks was equipped with an independently-elevating secondary weapons station in a roughly cylindrical hull.

Middle production variants (the most widely produced to date) can be distinguished by their highly-placed return rollers - a choice made to further increase internal hull space, although that space is often taken up by sponson-mounted weapons. These variants also often trade the hull turret for a smaller gun mount with fewer shot traps, more vision ports for the driver, and a better-armored turret that moves the secondary mounts to the main turret mantlet.

Later production tracks often return to the lower return rollers, with the hull extending above them for additional storage space. Some additional modifications to the base design that are not in common service include a more armored glacis plate that dispenses entirely with hull-mounted weapons and a heavy turret originally designed for weapons testing (but whose extra space allows for easy crew handling for large weapons and extra ammunition storage).

The weapons and some hull parts have magnet holes in case you want to swap weapons after assembly. You’ll need 3mm (⅛”) x 1mm and 5mm (¼”) x 1mm rare earth magnets if you choose to take advantage of them.

I do test-print all my pres and make an effort for them to be as useful as possible, but I cannot guarantee that they’ll work with every printer/resin/location/weather combination.

This kit includes the parts needed to build the Kli-San battle tank in several of the long-serving vehicle's production variants.

The kit contains three track variants each with optional track guards, three different glacis plates, and three turret options. The wraparound tracks also three different sponson types (external, internal, and covered).

Each turret contains nine main gun options as well as a modular mantlet for use with any of the more than twenty standard mount modular weapons included.

Finally, pintle weapons, disposable missile launchers and stowage are included, as well as a trench rail and dozer blade. This kit probably contains more options than any single kit I've released to date, and its release marks the fourth anniversary of my very first model release (the original Kli-San kit). I hope you enjoy!

This kit is preed, but also includes uned STLs for those who want to print in FDM or would prefer to handle their own s.
