Heavy Hobby 1/35 PLA ZTQ-15 Light Tank Tracks — #PT-35015 (for Meng TS-048 / PLA ZTQ-15 “Black Panther”)
Upgrade your 1:35-scale PLA ZTQ-15 “Black Panther” light tank build with this high-quality aftermarket track set from Heavy Hobby. Designed specifically to fit the official 1:35 PLA ZTQ-15 light tank kit (e.g. Meng TS-048), this track-link set offers superior detail, realistic track behavior, and a solid foundation for weathering and display builds.
📦 What’s Included & Key Features
Scale: 1:35 — fully compatible with the Meng TS-048 PLA ZTQ-15 kit.
Type: Link-by-link track set (not a single rubber-band track) — each link is separate, allowing realistic assembly with proper track sag, suspension alignment, and ground contact when mounted.
Material: Injection-molded plastic (with “rubber” track components where appropriate per the set spec) — giving crisp detail in track tread, guide teeth, and geometry, ready for painting and weathering.
Condition: Brand-new, unassembled and unpainted — ideal for builders who want full control over the build: fit, finish, and finish style.
✅ What This Upgrade Gives You
Realistic track behavior: Because the tracks are link-by-link, you can model realistic sag, proper tension, and believable ground contact — much more authentic than fixed tracks or rubber bands. This realism translates especially well in display models or dioramas with terrain.
Improved detail & realism: The molding quality captures fine track details (tread, guide lugs, geometry) that show up really well once painted, weathered, or after adding dust, mud, or wear effects.
Better for display / dioramas: If you plan to depict terrain — mud, dirt, rocky ground, snow, or urban rubble — articulated tracks that interact naturally with the ground make a big difference visually.
Upgrade for accuracy: Even if the base kit includes tracks, this aftermarket set can offer a more correct or enhanced look — especially desirable if you’re particular about realism or want a “pro-level” build.
🔧 What to Know Before Buying / Building
This is a tracks-only set — it does not include the tank hull, turret, suspension wheels, or any other parts. You will need a compatible PLA ZTQ-15 (e.g. Meng TS-048) or a similarly scaled base kit to complete the build.
Assembly is more involved than a one-piece track band — expect to spend additional time link-by-link fitting, test-fitting, possibly glue or pinning, and painting/weathering.
For best results: prep the tracks carefully (clean up flash, test fit), assemble with care, and plan painting/weathering so the tracks match the rest of the build. Realistic tracks often look their best with subtle weathering, mud stains, and integrated with the hull’s wear.
🎯 Who This Is Best For
Modelers building the PLA ZTQ-15 light tank (Meng TS-048) who want a higher-fidelity track set.
Builders aiming for realistic final models, displays, or dioramas — especially in terrain with mud, snow, dirt, or battlefield debris.
Hobbyists who appreciate detail and are comfortable doing more advanced assembly and finishing work.
Anyone wanting a sturdy, realistic base for painting, weathering, and customizing their ZTQ-15 “Black Panther.”
