Overview
1/24 Scale Japanese Type 90 Airsoft and Infrared Battle Tank by Heng Long - RTR - HLG3808-001
The Type 90 was the main battle tank of the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force, first entering service in 1990. Built by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and operated by a 3-man crew, the 120mm smoothbore main gun was fed by an auto-loader, allowing for efficiency and a smaller number of crew aboard.
Heng Long has manufactured industry-leading RC tanks for more than 20 years, and these 1/24 scale models deliver an economical, compact method for customers wishing to explore the world of RC tanks.

Cool little tank
It’s ok for the price.It’s more of a shelf piece for me but it works.I purchased all three of the 1/24 scale, but the M1A2 Abrams(mine of course)right side caterpillar...read moreIt’s ok for the price.It’s more of a shelf piece for me but it works.I purchased all three of the 1/24 scale, but the M1A2 Abrams(mine of course)right side caterpillar seems to catch/get stuck when turning in one direction but not the other.Otherwise it’s ok but I won’t be replacing it when it breaks.The Japanese Type 90 is my wife’s and it seems okay.My brother in law got the German Leopard and I haven’t heard any bad news from him so I guess I got the lemon..lol.That’s what I get for taking first pick.

They worked well but felt even at the low price point they should have basic support and be repairable.
