T-18 light tank ,(also called MS-1 Russian: Maliy Soprovozhdeniya-Perviy, means "First Small Support") was the first Soviet-designed tank. Produced from 1928-31, it was based on the Renault FT, with the addition of a vertically sprung suspension.
The T-18 and its derivatives were essentially unsuccessful designs, but they gave Soviet industry its first experiences in designing armoured vehicles, and in the meantime a number of foreign tank designs were available for production.

A nice kit of the first generation of soviet armour.
Its typical Hobbyboss engineering; crisp moldings, no flash, but a little soft on some details.
However, it does build into a nice model.
Two things tho. Dry fit every step of the way to ensure a proper fit. Secondly, don't follow the instructions regarding the tracks nor the drivers doors. With the tracks, if you are going to use the kit links, put them on first, before you put on the fenders. Its too tight to slip the tracks past the idler, after installing the fenders. With the drivers doors, put them on first before the hinges, otherwise the hinges will not be in the correct position to line up with the doors.
Take your time, and dry fit those parts.
