2025 ARMORTEK KIT SURVEY

Over the last few years we have brought out a whole series of kits as a direct result of your feedback - kits like the Pershing, JagdPanther, Hetzer, Leopard 2A4, and more recently the Sd Kfz 7, 88mm Flak 36 and the upcoming Challenger 2.

So, in keeping with what has become and annual tradition, here is your opportunity to once again influence our future production plans.

We have added in some "guide pricing" next to the names of the models. This is a rough estimate of the price at the current rates.

Thanks in advance for your input and we look forward to the results.

Tiger 1 gun animation option pack

Post by Armortek »

We have a new design for the Tiger 1 gun animation option pack. It is compatible with all releases of the Tiger 1 and attaches to the Glacis plate with the same bolts that fix the gun mantlet in place.

Unfortunately one of the lasercut parts has been made incorrectly - we have ordered replacements but the lead time is around 10 days. Therefore any one with Gun Animation as part of the option pack order will have a slight delay.

We have received a few emails asking for more details on the gun animation, so here goes:

The Gun Animation Option Pack adds slew (horizontal) movement to the machine gun as well as an LED for the machine gun flash.
For the Flash to work you need to have a RED BOX Armortek Audio module from at least 2019 onwards - it may work on previous Audio Modules, but we do not have the data to confirm.
The slew movement is controlled by a servo - this needs to be connected to a spare channel on your receiver.

The Pack consists of the following:
- Machine Gun LED
- Servo
- Bracket for the Servo
- Mechanical parts to connect to the Machine Gun ball
- Fasteners.

Good news. Does it work on the Elefant and other non-slopped front armour Pzkfw/STGU ?
