The Vickers Medium vehicle was based on the experiences of the First World War. First of all, it had very thin armour, only 6-7 mm thick, and was primarily designed to work with infantry. At the same time, however, it had the main armament placed in a rotating turret and developed faster than the British heavy or medium tanks of the Mark I, Mark IV or Mark V type from the Great War period. During series production, two main development versions of the Vickers Medium were made. The first, labelled Vickers Medium Mk. It was also the first production series. The second version is the Vickers Medium Mk. II, which had slightly reinforced armour and, in some instances, instead of Vickers machine guns, it had Hotchkiss rifles. The Vickers Medium vehicle was the basic and most numerous tank of the British Army in the period 1923-1938. During World War II, they were completely obsolete and were used primarily for training. They were used in a marginal way during the battles for Tobruk and Marsa Matruh in 1940-1942.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2026-07-28T09:21:48+02:00","created_at":"2026-07-28T09:21:41+02:00","vendor":"Hobby Boss","type":"Scale Model Kits","tags":["Brand_Hobby Boss","Category_Armour \/ Military","Scale_1\/35 Scale","Type_Tanks \/ Tracked AFVs"],"price":99995,"price_min":99995,"price_max":99995,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":49111201054971,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"6939319238788","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Hobby Boss - 1\/35 Vickers Medium Tank MK.I","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":99995,"weight":0,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Hobby-Boss-1-35-Vickers-Medium-Tank-MK.jpg?v=1785223304"],"featured_image":"\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Hobby-Boss-1-35-Vickers-Medium-Tank-MK.jpg?v=1785223304","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":41767043039483,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.504,"height":681,"width":1024,"src":"\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Hobby-Boss-1-35-Vickers-Medium-Tank-MK.jpg?v=1785223304"},"aspect_ratio":1.504,"height":681,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Hobby-Boss-1-35-Vickers-Medium-Tank-MK.jpg?v=1785223304","width":1024}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch1\u003e1\/35 Vickers Medium Tank MK.I\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHobby Boss 83878\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExcludes all glues, paints and tools necessary to assemble.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Vickers Medium was a British medium tank from the interwar period.
