From the autumn of 1981, in accordance with the Army Structure 4, the Tank Battalion 543 (TkBtl) was issued. A tank company consisted at that time of three tank platoons, each with four battle tanks as well as a battle tank for the company commander. The company was supplemented by a crew transport tank such as the M113, a truck and a VW bus. The Schuco Military 1:87 Series Tank Platoon constitutes a typical TkBtl 543 platoon. Military models come with a metal body and chassis. As is expected of Schuco models, a number of key features have been reproduced exactly with the greatest attention to detail.
