AFV 35100 1/35 Centurion Mk5/1 V.N. RAAC

The Centurion Mk.5, developed in 1955, was a modified Mk.3 with the addition of extra machine guns and minor design changes. In a further modification, Centurion Mk.5/1, an additional armour plate was fitted to the Centurion's lower glacis. A total of 221 tanks of this modification were produced. Some were converted from Australian Centurion Mk.3 and Mk.5 models, 58 of which were later used by Australia in the Vietnam War. They remained in service with Australia until the 1980s, when they were replaced by Leopard 1s.
