Italeri 1/56 Cromwell Mk.IV Plastic Model Kit

WWll TANK COLLECTION -  55 PARTS - HIGHLY DETAILED KIT - 1 FIGURE  -  SUPER DECALS FOR 2 VERSIONS

The Tank Cruiser Cromwell was developed during the Second World War by the British Army to replace the outdated Crusader in the role of "Cruiser Tank". The Cromwell was characterized by a very high speed, which could reach over 60 km/h, and great maneuverability. The speed, often limited so as not to excessively wear out the mechanics of the tank and in particular its suspension, was combined with a decent armor and good armament.

The main 75 mm gun mounted in the turret was in fact quite powerful in clashes against similar armored vehicles and could use the same ammunition as other Allied tanks such as the American Sherman. The Cromwell also played the effective role of close support to infantry.
