ScaleX FCM 50t French Heavy Tank 1:72 3D Printed Model Kit SM-72001

3D-Printed Scale Model of the FCM 50t Heavy Tank in 1/72 Scale

We present a highly detailed 3D-printed scale model of the French FCM 50t heavy tank in 1/72 scale, created for modelers who value historical accuracy, rich detailing, and modern manufacturing technologies.

The kit reproduces the distinctive features of this ambitious post-war project — a massive hull, complex suspension, and a recognizable silhouette that combines design elements of the transitional period between World War II and the early Cold War.

Complete assembly kit The model is supplied as a ready-to-assemble kit and includes:

• highly detailed 3D-printed parts for the hull, turret, and suspension
• photo-etched (PE) parts, including grilles
• water-slide decals with marking options
• 0.2 mm spring steel rods for turret antennas
• two paint scheme options
• detailed assembly instructions
• glue and paint are not included

High level of detail and production quality

All model components were developed based on in-depth analysis of available historical materials, drawings, and photographic references.
High-resolution photopolymer 3D printing provides:

• precise geometry and accurate proportions
• sharp edges and fine surface details
• clean mating surfaces for easy assembly
• excellent suitability for painting and weathering techniques

This model allows you to recreate one of the most intriguing “what-if” tank projects of the 20th century in a compact 1/72 scale. It looks equally at home in a display case or as part of a diorama scene.

FCM 50t — an ambitious French tank design

The FCM 50t was a French post-war heavy tank project developed shortly after World War II, when the French Army was seeking a replacement for the Panther tanks received as war reparations, as well as the domestically produced ARL 44.

Designed in late 1945 by Forges et Chantiers de la Méditerranée (FCM) as an alternative to projects such as the AMX-50, the FCM 50t reflected contemporary armored warfare concepts and was influenced by late-war German tank designs. The project never progressed beyond the design stage and was never built.
