ABRAMS X (1:35 SCALE) Assembly Model Kits
Thank you for choosing the AbramsX Assembly Model Kit from Bridg Manufacturing!
The AbramsX is a main battle tank technology demonstrator developed by General Dynamics Land Systems. Unveiled in 2022, it explores how future armored vehicles could improve mobility, efficiency, and battlefield capabilities.
Its design brings together a smaller crew, an unmanned turret, and a hybrid power system. General Dynamics says the demonstrator is designed to achieve the same tactical range as the M1A2 Abrams while using 50% less fuel.

• Assembly may require a wide array of pressure to connect parts. Use care during assembly and avoid excessive force. Excessive force or impact may cause parts to break. Broken pieces may have sharp edges.
• This product is intended for hobby, educational, and display purposes. Handle all parts with care during assembly.
• Glue is required for some pieces on this kit (see assembly instructions). Follow all glue manufacture recommendations when assembling.
• Using a heat source such as lighter/heat gun (at a safe distance as to not burn product or yourself) and some minor rubbing will take care of the plastic “hairs” that may be present. Not required for successful assembly of model kit. ONLY to be done by an ADULT. Heat sources are HOT and will BURN YOU if you let it get too close.
• There is a lovely english cream golden retreiver (dog) on site at Bridg Manufacturing. We kindly ask you to have some understanding, should you find a dog hair in your kit, dispose of the hair, and continue on.
• Bridg Manufacturing, nor the model designer(s), are not liable for injuries or damages resulting from improper assembly, misuse, or modification of this product.
• Read Safety Information
• You will need glue and something with a hard tip such as tweezers, chopstick, 1/8 or smaller allen wrench.
• At this time there are no spare pieces. Please use caution and a clean, flat work surface with good lighting to ensure pieces are not lost.
• I highly recommend to assemble without glue so you know what's going on before it becomes permenant.
• Carefully remove all parts from the package and verify that all plane pieces are present before starting assembly. (101 pieces)
• This model is designed to snap-together AND glue. Super glue or gorilla glue is acceptable (see safety information for more on glue).
• Some parts may require firm pressure to fully seat together. Avoid excessive force that could damage the model. Force only in intended direction and try not to force in incorrect direction. Sideways? Diagonal? SNAP!
• Heat sources can burn you and, should you choose this method to remove "plastic hairs", it should only be done by an adult.

Instructions
Blue Lines: Requires super glue for assembly.
Yellow Lines: These are moving parts, don't apply glue.
For wheel axles, notice the slots in them. See orientation below.
Wheel clips can be a little tricky. I find it best to try and hold the axle and wheel halves together and install the clip and then install on tank body.
Clip trick (right-handed): Hold axle and wheel halves upright with left hand. Use right hand to set wheel clip on then place left hand index finger on the side of the wheel clip with no gap. Then, using right hand, use something with a hard tip, such as tweezers, to press on the clip near the gap and it should snap down. Once that side is down, press the hard tip down on the other side of the clip gap and it should snap down. If you are left-handed, do the opposite.
I glue the small turret cylinder to the turret and the big cone to the tank body. DO NOT glue big cone to turret unless you do not want turret to be able to rotate 360°.
