09580 1/35 Object 450 Medium Tank Plastic Model Kit

Object 450 was an attempt to design a futuristic tank by Morozov, a T-64 designer. He wrote about his concept of a new tank, which he called NST-74, Object 450 and T-74, in his diary.

This vehicle was proposed in the early 1970's in Kharkov design bureau, as NST-74 ("New Medium Tank - 74"). It turned out to be more of a concept than a real design that the Soviet industry would be able to build in 1970's. The T-74 concept from 1972 was found to be not very good, while the 1973 concept had several key improvements - better gunner position (and later it was futher improved in 1974), gun mount, ammo storage, FCS principles and crew placement. This new tank was to be created to surpass new Leopard and XM-801.
