Unassembled plastic model kit in 1/72 scale of a British WWII infantry tank Churchill, Mk.III variant, with the modifications performed for the Dieppe raid in 1942 (Operation Jubilee).

The raid over the Dieppe port was a failure which costed over 50% of casualties of the involved troops, not achieving the main objectives, but giving both sides learnings later applied on future landings as D-D-Day.

Over 50 new Churchill tanks of several types were used for first time in combat in this action, they had several special modifications to operate on the beaches and shallows as the extended exhaust pipes for deep-water wading.

Tracks are DS single type, decal sheet includes three markings of the 1st Canadian Army tank brigade, 14th Canadian Armoured Regiment (Calgary), who took part in the action.
